Very old light blue framed Honda

[darrel632]

In my travels I stumbled across a blue Honda frame with "MOON" tires. Looks like 22 in amphibian (ARGO/ Amphicat?) tires, No plastics, no fuel tank, but engine transmission, frame and rear axle complete. The frame resembles a tri-z quite a lot, any Ideas? The id plate is stamped tin, riveted to the frame, high left side near the forks "Honda Motor co. America" I'll keep the serial no to my self for now, but its very short compared to any 1984 + I own.
Is this a pre 1980 trike? Worth 200 bucks?, it turns over (pull start), compression sucks. Is it possible to find any parts for one this old, the farmer couldn't remember the last time he saw any of it including what I found.

Pic? How big is the motor? Any suspension?

[sandpuppi101]

sounds like the aqua blue us90 to me,how big are the rims,and does it have a high/low on bottom of the motor,how about a headlight or a place to mount one,and does it have a weird handle on the middle of the upper tree between the bars? Got any pics? Better yet look on the steering stem, left side does it start us90!

Rims are 22's , no head light on it holes for one though, stamped metal frame, looks like a live axle, nothing on the left stem other than 2 small holes from an ID plate, all 3 tires have held air for 3 days, bottom of motor is covered in crud, mud and grease haven't cleaned it yet, terrified my wife will find yet another incomplete trike in the shop (was 6 now 7). Tires are in amazing condition for the age, they were hanging in a grainery on a piece of hay wire - frame and engine in the grass beside it, farmers still looking for the plastic, said for the 200 I paid for it I should get the plastic as well, his last kid left home in 75 he thinks it was running then. just can't remember. compression when pulling it over is steady at 68 psi. some one has a set of tires on E-bay for 1400.00 US are these trikes/ tires that rare?

I'm guessing it is a 90 with old balloon tires. And yes they are rare tires.

Come on man, post some pics!!!!

The only blue honda was the 90. and with the tires you describe it must be. I just don't know why the secret with the vin number...

you are kinda wrong the were other blue hondas atc/s in 82 there was a dark blue atc70 and in 83 there was a dark blue atc110, but they both had black frames, btw how rare are the candy green atc90's? i just picked one up pretty good verall shape for 125 bucks. just needs a ton of red spray paint rubbed off and new seatcover.

stamping is almost gone on the vin plate, digits are H??0- ????-XXX-0063

Nice blue 110!!! Definetly a deal on a rare trike

[toyvette81]

it was running great then the jet clogged with rust and would not come clean... ordered rebuild kit and since then it will not run right... got it close yesterday and it developed an air leak pretty sure at the carb from the head..... the stud was stripped so ill fix that soon but right now its acting like its getting no fire... i'll check the switch on the bar thats y it had tape on it to hold it steady... its tricky at times.... i hope i can get it running again... it was running perfect.. would idol for hours.....
