So you mean a 1994 model ?

That wouldn't be the back end of 1993 then, as 1994 models would have been on sale.

Links similar though.

your confusing me mate.. just a after what colours the rear triangle of a 93 explosif available in? so far i've seen 'what appears' to be a dark green a dark blue and maybe black? I've never mentioned a '94 model..

that's not the uk one.. only interested in the uk ones with the fade colourway.. --- ignore

did they do a silver/black i seem to have seen lots in different colours but it might just be poor photography...?

Just poor photos, I had a 1992 Explosif in that awful green that faded to babypoo/ Tesco mushy pea green.

thankyou! i'm getting my '93 kilauea painted and wanted something a little diffrerent but still the std front silver fade . Just didn't want the same colour as anything that was actually available otherwise it's look like a copy..

ah the rear triangle... not the fall/end of 1993

Rear end of a horse, few would get that wrong :shock:


So what colours are you thinking of, sticking to black? Yellow/Orange/Pink probably never cropped up in a fade colour.

I think the Cindercone was another that could look black in pictures or dark light
