"Bridgestone Edition" Honda ATC 90

[Joseph Farrow]

May want to look again. Bridgestone is clearly imprinted on the front fender. Not a decal

You guys are too funny.....
I'm not saying it isnt someting special but I highly doubt American Honda Motor Corp of Japan made it specially for Bridgestone.
Has anyone looked at the Bike in person to verify how the "Bridgestone" logo was applied or are you just looking at the pixs from the ad?

May want to look again.
I did look again and it still appears to be just a decal applied to a stock ATC90.

I don't believe the Bridgestone on the front fender is a decal at all, but rather is actually molded into it and part of the fender.
What happened to the "Mold"? I cant believe QA would let the "T" not being correct in the logo get by them.

the front fender mud flap has the Bridgestone logo on it. From the picture it doesn't look like a sticker but rather made for the mud flap. Moonpup what part of TX are you from?

[moonpup]

The partial "T" in the raised logo is merely the result of it being oxidized and brittle and that section eventually breaking off. You'll notice the edges of the rest of the letters are no longer as crisp & sharp as they should be, this also due to oxidation & wear over the years.

BTW: What's your theory on the red "Bridgestone" that is embossed under the Honda logo on the mud flap? Is that a decal as well?

Edit: Also noticed "Bridgestone" is on the rear mud flaps as well....

I'm currently down here in the Rio Grande Valley, but will soon be back in Houston.

That is what I thought as well. You can still see the darker portion on the fender where the other part of the T once was.

Cool. It's always good to see more Texas Riders on here

Buy it, restore it, and if you own a Bridgestone tire shop use it as a marketing prop.

Speculating through pictures....SMH

somebody still wishing it was in their truck i see. this is like american politics, right there in front of you but you still can't see it haha. there's not a shadow of a doubt that this atc is a promotional concept. every mudflap is embossed with bridgestone. wouldn't be too tough for a tire company to achieve that would it

I'm the one laughing at you if you are refering to me wanting it in the back of my truck.
I tell you what, go ahead and buy it and send me your paypal address and I'll give you $5k for it.
The only American Politics I see right here in front of me is someone trying to hype something for the sake of making some money off a ATC90 with Bridgestone Decals.

It's ultra rare just like the blue 110s and 70s, just like the U-Haul bikes and the police KLT's

Just like everything else.

At best it was a promotional item...call the guy and ask if he has any firsthand knowledge or paperwork on the bike showing its rarity, and if he doesn't and you still want it offer him a generous $200 and if he doesn't take it walk away.

Its not rocket surgery.

In case it is your belief that that "someone" was me, let me make it clear that I neither own nor do I have any interest in this other than trying to find out what the story is behind these 2 brands coming together. Trying to insure that accurate information is presented in a thread is not in any way "hype"......

It's a cool bike for posterity sake, but let's not let egos and butt hurt flow through us today or in this thread. There's a few newbies in this thread that are kicking up some dust which seems odd but ok. Please check egos at the door. If you aren't buying it and have no intentions then move on please.

[DailyGrind]

personally interested in buying it, yes, but fair enough.

[DailyGrind]

i was wrong its all decals. my apology. so its not like politics after all

[Ghostv2]

You guys sure are defensive and don't even own the dang thing.

It's simple, if you think it's cool, go buy it. Put it in the garage and have a nice conversation piece until you find out some real history on it. Who knows, maybe one day you'll find out it's something special or worse comes to worse you have an atc90. You can't go wrong from what I see. Spend your energy wrenching not fighting.
