Did a little work on the old girl this past weekend. She's all original. Set the tire pressures, got her warshed up, fired her up, rode a few slow laps around the back yard to warm it up, changed the oil, and topped off the fuel. Had a smile on my face the whole time riding this thing. Just cool as heck.

Very nice! You just don't see too many red ones for some reason? Do you still have the air pump and tire gauge?

Very nice looking original US90 you got there. You should get the seat re-upholstered...it would finish it off nicely.

She's a beaut bud! I'll never forget the first time I laid my eyes on a 90; I couldn't stop looking at those tires!

Thanks all for the kind words. I have thought about installing a new seat cover, but I figure what for? It's all original and I have no plans in the near future for a restoration, so she will stay all original for now, seat cover and all.

For now, see my build thread for new parts. :-)

And hublake, I'm in the lower thumb area of Michigan.

What do you call the lower thumb area? I am near Alpena

I'm down near Port Huron, a little west of. I have family that has a place near Hillman, so I've been to Alpena a few times.
