Hello guys I am buying some new things for my 78 CR250 so it will be top notch for this summer. I found a few things I need at elsinores.com and red-racer.com and was wondering if there were any other reliable online sites like these two? These two are reliable correct?

Thanks!

For pipes, carbs and reproduction parts those are the two to buy from. They do require patience sometimes. I have always received the parts I ordered and the quality is good, but sometimes it took awhile and required phone calls.

There are many places mentioned here and other forums to find NOS and still available Honda parts.

Are you looking for any particular parts?

Well I just went over their sites quick last night at the list so far is:

from red-racer:
airbox lid
upper chain roller
chain guide roller
side decals
tank decals
possibly the allen bolt set and the alum chain guide

from elsinores.com:
Air filter
front wheel bearings
rear wheel bearings
throttle cable
brake cable
clutch cable

i have more to spend on little fixit like these. But from what is one those two sites this is about all they have that I need (other then some exhaust! but that will wait). WHat are some URL's to other reliable sites? It would be nice if I could get everything from one place.

Thanks

Other on line stores that I had very good success with are AMS Racing out of Arizona & as mentioned Red-Racer, Vintage Iron. These three stores work the best for me. They answered any of my questions quickly, had what I needed & shipped fast.
Good Luck.
