Does any one know of a company that is or going to start my plastic for the cannondale?
The reason I'm asking is cause I was think of changing the color of the quad but want to keep the cannondale look. I don't want the honda 250r look stuff.

You can get stock plastic from Cannondale pretty cheap. I'm going with the Grey this winter in my "winter restoration".
I saw a Black FX400, and found out that he had the plastic painted. I don't know of any companies that are currently making stock style plastic. You can retro-fit 250r plastic on it...but that's about it.

$475.00 gets front fenders, rear fenders, both side panels, complete seat assembly and headlight covers.
Silver, Black, Gray, or Red for fenders.
Silver, Black, or Red for sidepanels.
Red, Black, Silver, Blue, or Yellow for headlight covers.
Seat cover texture, color, and foam density varies with the model you want.
I noticed quite a while back, that when comparing Cannondale parts prices with the other brands...there's a difference. Parts that are not considered "common part" are higher with the Cannondales [A common part is anything that is likely to be replaced during the lifetime of the machine]
Common parts are MUCH cheaper on the Cannondales.
I sold a radiator for an E440 last week.......$135.00
A radiator for a CR250 is over $400.00!!!!!!

wyndzer,
The black plastic is one of the colors offered for the 2003 Cannibals. It will fit your Speed and can be ordered from your dealer.
There is a possiblity of back order since they are new. I haven't checked if it's been released for resale yet. Even if it is on back order, you need to have your dealer order it now if you want it. The earlier you get your order in, the quicker you will receive them.
