I believe most of the utility ATC's front suspension forks will fit on, but don't quote me on that.

I have done this mod several times it will work fine but you will need the 200s axle also the steering stops will need modifiing or cut off then new welded on unless you want your tank to act as steering stop ,not good damage to tank also over steer if done correctly woks good front susp. help smooth the ride and takes viberations away fromhands ,wrist ,good luck

the one thing I kinda learned with most hondas is...most front ends with swap on to other bikes/atc. for the most part, most of the ATC front ends have the same steering bearing size. the way I do it is go to allballs bearings, and see what size bearings your 90 take, then see what size bearings a suspention atc takes, if they are the same, chances are it will fit, assuming the stem is long enough. but like I said honda is pretty good about that. I even bolted on with very little modifications, a front end from a 2005 honda on to my old 90 honda, I did the bearing check, then dropped it on, now I got cartridge forks and big brakes!

You want the complete front end. Forks, axel, hub, wheel, brake setup. etc. Headlight mount too if you can get it. I still haven't figured out a good way to mount the stock headlight back on. I used the 90 bars and bar mounts but the spacing isn't correct. Inspect the forks good if you can cause both the ones I picked up were tweaked.

Not a bolt on deal . Will require fabbing to use them . And too big IMO for a 90 .
