this is gonna sound like anuvver ad..but as Ive got the catalogue, may as well share it!
Off Road Only do rear shock service parts including the bump stop for the CR's and XR's. If you can cross ref the shaft size, Im sure thats the main consideration. They are about £15-£17.

If you look at the article I wrote about my DIY shock rebuild
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3303

There is a link to the right page of the ORO online catalogue
http://www.oro2u.com/acatalog/250cc_HON ... _KITS.html

And the part number (for the seal head kit) is given as 29-661.A which is for the CR250 1998-1990 model.

So, by a process of guesswork and handwaving I reckon you want part number 29-231 from
