It was the same model I rode as a kid from ages 5 to 12...I'm going to try to make it look new again it is in pretty good shape starts and runs good! I need new rear plastic will any other rear fender fit? Is there a place that sells them? Thanks!!!!182852

Welcome Jay, :welcome: If the rear fenders are fiberglass and have holes or cracks in them they can be repaired by auto repair person.Then painted what ever color you like. If a piece is missing then there is e-bay or this site to find replacement parts for all of the trike's needs. Good luck!!!!!! :beer

Jeremy "90Crazy" has all styles available from US90 to 74-78 ATC90 as well as LoPro Race fenders. He can also do front fenders. Very reasonable priced and excellent turn around. Welcome to the site. You can find what you are looking for on this site. Good luck with your 90.

The rear fenders are easy enough to replace, looks like you have plastic fenders on there now. The 110 fenders are the same and can be bought brand new aftermarket, so no worries there.

As for the gas tank, depending on the dent i would get a body shop to pull the dent out. I had the local shop pop out a dent on a 250 tank this summer, just like they do the paintless dent repair for hail damage. Turned out really nice. But worst case they can use a stud welder and a slide hammer to get it popped out to.

Welcome, nice looking trike! I think I had one for my GI joe as a kid. Anyone remember that one? Lol I think it was for GI Joe.... Maybe it was just a toy trike that I used for my GI Joe.... Lol what ever the case may be, your real version is nice looking! Welcome!

Cool! That's a neat looking one, never saw one in Green!
is there a way to put air in that front tire? I have a home made cart for putting a small boat on and pushing it down the beach to the water and it has that same tire (well, it looks like the same tires) on it but they don't have an air valve and inside the hub, instead of ball bearings, its got some small, maybe 3/8" or 1/2" x 4 or 5" long plastic rods like long needle bearings... I got this from someone in the business complex where I work so Im not sure if these were trike tires or not, they are pretty balloon and don't seem to be made for this boat cart he made with them... Oh and its got maybe an 1-1/2" or 2" ID Axle...lol

Sounds like you have some us90 floaters to me. But they do have a valve to put air in. The axle portion is right tho.

I have to look at them and see if there is a stem... maybe there is but they do look just like that front tire... If I remember right, the tire and rim are like one piece... lol
