I have never seen that color as stock for any market. The wheels appear to be the correct color for 91 in the States.
I agree with Mike; not a standard colour for that model (or any Honda bike AFAIK) and the decals don't look quite right either; both look too large, and the tank logo is not quite in a normal alignment in relation to the knee cutout crease.
hopefully gonna check it out this week. i saw a green one in Daytona quite a few years back. friend said it was canadian color. so, that's why i'm asking all the experts.

Looks like Honda wineberry from that vintage (used on ST1100)...... ask if it's Canajan, might be an import... although I don't know of one in that colour.
no such factory color for the 3rd gen vfr anywhere. http://www.vsource.org/VFR-RVF_files/Bvfr750fl-p-mi.htm
update on "brown" bike. got vin to Honda. bike originally came out in red, mystery solved. thanks for all the input
I have my own little colour mystery. I have a ST1300 which shows as first registered in 2005, and originally registered as blue. However...the colour label on the frame indicates that it is a ST1300A4 and should be R-151C-U (Candy graceful red), and yet...barring the fender, all the body is Coronado Blue. The fender was clearly red and repainted blue. The blue is the official 2004 colour, the red is the official 2005 colour. So while I know I have a ST1300, I have no idea what year it really is... Maybe they had too much sake at afternoon tea when the bike was being made.
send your vin to Honda Motorcycles. they will give you what is came as spend $39 for Carfax and they will get you the bikes history. my guess ,it's a repaint, hopefully, not stolen or damaged good luck
I have access to the government database info for the bike and it was originally blue when registered in 05, and aside from the fender all the blue paint is factory original, so I'm not concerned in any way. (I also bought it as a 17-year old and well-used machine, so buyer beware and all that). The only bit that really makes no sense is the colour label attached to the frame.
We swapped a couple bikes bodywork on the floor at the dealership for customers. Maybe it was something like that. Then later on in it's life it needed a replacement fender for some reason. I don't know, it's just the first thing that came to mind.
well, ya can't fix stupid. from the 91 repainted, i'm now looking at a 99 800. hasn't run in 4 years. didn't run then. he poured gas down the throttle bodies and it fired up, but didn't run. is it worth a $2000 gamble
