2004 model to be exact, nobody i can find seems to be able to find anything in the country.
i need it before the weekend.
if its 2nd hand it needs to be cheap, if its new it needs to still be cheap but not as cheap lol
as we stand i have no rear guard (no i didnt break it- the mrs did) and what was left of the old one is now totally fucked.

You are so right!
Ive just been at TopFun looking at them. They are totaly different! so is the 450 and 250. air box shape and subframe mountings are way off.
He has exactly what you want- with a new LED light in it for $68 plus freight. Brand is

its really not that far!! often i get stuff from scott in pukekohe leaving there at 430pm or sometimes later and it arrives by 730 the following morning!
anyway, thanks heaps for that referral, ive contacted him and ordered it. legend!
another plus is the tail light included as i managed to lose / break the old one whilse riding with a flapping guard on sunday. on only had the lens remaining.
no, they dont. ive allready tried that.
What year have you tried to fit it to?
I have a 04 250x with a 250r rear guard on it it may be a different years guard, But it has not been cut or anything the only difference is no led tail light

are you sure you have a R guard? you can commonly get replacement guards for X's without the tail light hole.
the X guard has a number of square shaped ridges in it up against the airbox region which is the easiest place to see that its different, then the other mounting holes are also different.
in comparison, the R guard of the same year has just a simple rounded shape that buts up to the airbox without accomdation for the battery etc
the R guard i have tried is from an 05, which as far as plastics go are the same bike as an 04.
Im not a 100% sure if mines an r gaurd but was told by my mechanic mate who i brought it off that it was. I didnt realize they made replacement gaurds for the x's with no leds it could possibly be one of them. I thought they were both interchangeble i know they are in the front. Mine is Acerbis branded not genuine honda although that wont make f*ck all difference
