Just brought this home last night. Looks like i will need some parts!! Gonna need pics of a seat bottom since the only one i found so far is way beyond my budget but no need to rush building it up. Does run and ride212297212298212299 being the last year for 90's i couldnt leave it alone

Nice, it's cool to see another 90 getting a second chance in life. Good feeling knowing it's a running machine. Your gas tank looks to be free of any major dents, hopefully it's not all rusty inside. Keep posting your future progress for us. :TrikesOwn

have found a set of fenders close to my brother in denver he is supposed to pick them up today!! gonna try to make this look as good as yours but budget will decide will keep headlight assy in mind as that is another part he is to pick up thanks

well my journey begins. my brother picked up the front and rear fenders,headlight and rear grab bar last night so now i have to plan a visit in denver to negotiate a hostage release LOL been promising him i would go up and visit anyway today will start tearing it down to see what else is an issue so far it needs--top end rebuild, tank cleaned and coated, rear brake hand lever and cable, on/off switch, parts held hostage in colorado and painting will take pics along the way but this could take a while could use some opinions on just next upsize bore or the big bore setup from dratv also paint choice go back close to stock or go crazy with something different thanks everyone

If your not stuck on a stock seat set up, I've heated and bent a piece of puck board to match the curve, attached foam and covered it with 5-way stretch material. Then I put screws up through some of the holes in the fender to secure it. Not really pretty but definitely functional. If those are the old school soft knobbies you're in for a treat with the way it will ride, nice and smooth for a hard tail. I

luckily fenders i am getting has a seat, foam kind of rough looking and needs a cover but those are the easy pieces to deal with, but was starting to imagine possible options. the tires are a cheng shin 2 ply. some bad i just found -- a bent rear axle (did not catch that when i picked it up), not a big surprise both sprockets are almost knife edged brake shoes look real good thanks
