All hope may not be gone.
Back some years ago, they ceased production, but once there was enough interest, they ran them again.
So keep asking, enough requests may get them done again.

ask your local honda dealer hopefully by them trying to search for them in the data base that will show there is an interest therefor helping to have them produced again!

Do you like go to a honda site and add it to your wish list? I think the wish list is for that, when the part is available again you will be contacted. Maybe they keep count of wish lists? either way I will put in my 2 cents

Guys adress you wish to keep these in production here at this Honda phone number.
Give them the part number of the fender.
We was going thru this with the 250R cases, and I have heard (Dont know the validity of it yet...), that they may have continued production on those, maybe from calling them here.

This is from a previous post for the 250R cases that were discontinued.


Quoted from a 250R enthusiast site.

When I call I explain that the TRX250R has a loyal customer base that in many cases is not interested in the 4stroke alternative and therefore will be a continuing customer for the 2stroke. That number is Honda corporate customer service (Torrance CA): 866-784-1870

When you call this number, the information becomes available to the different departments inside Honda for review.

So parts discontinuation - typically a part gets discontinued when demand is low and the manufacturer goes out of business (which is increasing as of late with the economy). They have to see a certain monthly demand for the parts before they will go through the trouble to seek out and go through the process of design, manufacturing process and quality control. Around the 18-20 model year mark is when they start to lose interest in continuing parts. This is where we can help.

Here are some part numbers to call about. All these parts are important for keeping maintenance alive, but the cases are what concern me the most. Call and voice your need to have the parts back at: 866-784-1870

11001-HA2-770 Crankcase Assy. R 86-87
11002-HA2-771 Crankcase Assy. L 86-87
11100-HB9-770 Crankcase, R 88
11200-HB9-771 Crankcase Comp L 88-89

Thanks for the info "Mosh" ,, I WILL CALL THAT NUMBER! Everybody on 3ww needs to call and request these part numbers. I would say the 86 ATC250R fender will be easier since it was dico not long ago. I am going to ask for the 87 ATC200X AND THE 86 ATC250R fenders. we really need to ask for the oem front tire for these models to.
