1978 Honda ATC 90 Full Restoration - Part 1

- Well folks it's time for another BIG restoration project :)
This time i have set my sights on this 1978 Honda ATC ( All Terrain Cycle ) 90cc . I bought this bike as a barn find that hasn't seen the light of day for the past 20 years.
In this restoration just like all my other restorations i will be going through every part of the ATC repairing and restoring it all back to factory fresh.
So the first thing to do in this episode was a quick visual inspection and a quick turn over of the engine to make sure there are no major issues that would make the restoration of this trike unfeasible and im pleased to say that apart from a few missing and rusted out parts the ATC looks in good enough shape to be saved.
I then set about removing the panels, this was easy enough as there is only two panels excluding the front mud guard as its missing. Once the panels were off i could start removing mechanical parts, starting with the light, bars and basically working my way from the top down.
Once all the easy parts were removed i set my sights on the harder parts like the chain tensioner that had been welded on and the seized on axle nuts which all surrendered after a bit of negotiation with the burning gear, angle grinder and several hammers and chisels.
Soon enough the bike was in component form and ready for its transformation to begin.
As mentioned in the video the chrome is in terrible condition and if you can recommend a good chroming company id appreciate it.
Also the whats behind the mystery door will be revealed in the next episode as well as a few BIG changes to the channel ;)
Stay Tuned and i hope you enjoy this awesome restoration :)

1978 Honda ATC 90 Full Restoration - Part 1 - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Hey Guys, As you have probably noticed already i have updated the channel name and logo. The channel is no longer Really Random Channel it is now RRC Restoration. Just incase you were wondering why the water marks in the video still say Really Random Channel. Enjoy.
Would you be interested in another 1978 with title?
I had a 1977 ATC90. My father bought new for my brothers and I in 1978. Watching you tear in down brings back memories, everything looks so familiar.
Something therapeutic about watching these videos!
As a young fella I had a 1981 ATC 110 but it got sold off. A few years ago I managed to get hold of another as part of reliving my childhood. Recently pulled it all down and am now spending up big on replacement parts when I can find them. I can't wait to see your reassembly so I can follow suit - the 90 is very similar. So glad you're doing this as there are no good detail clips around until now.
Congratulations, seen your video I revival my child repairing my ATC 90.
Great Proyect your restoration amaizing
I didn't even have to watch the video to hit like. The Honda ATC 185S was the first thing I ever restored, after I retired from the Army.
Thanks for the like i really do appreciate it :)
3 wheelers are awesome they never should have stopped making them regardless of how many lawsuits.
You beauty! Happy memories indeed for me with this. I'd have sold my granny to own one myself back in the early 80's.
Really Random channel delivers once again!
Long time no see ;) Im so glad you're happy to see an ATC on the channel lots of nostalgia surrounding these death traps haha.
This should be lots of fun. The dissambly was interesting but the cleanup and restoration of all the parts is what i'm waiting on. So much sandblasting and polishing to do.
I just have to re watch this one more time, your videos are pure art.
I never expected this! This is going be an epic rebuild 🙂
Thanks, Glad to have you along for the ride :)
You don't choose easy projects
I didn't even skip 10 seconds
Your work inspired me to my youtube channel.
I am waiting for the continuation.
I dearly hope after all of that teardown, sandblasting and removal of rust is next. Nice little project. Thanks for sharing.
Yup ALOT of sandblasting and rust removal coming next episode ;)
I haven’t visited the shop ( channel) in awhile. You’ve got a big project here. Looking forward to the finish 👏👏
This is the best rebuild channel ever.
High praise indeed :) Thank you
Can’t wait!! I love it...nice job grinding those welds down and removing the parts undamaged. Those can be a pain! I know this will be awesome! You’re the man!
Thank you for your kind comment :)
I really love the fact that you always know what to do and always use the right tool. Can’t wait for part 2!
Thank you so much :)
Absolutely love this kind of restoration....small enough to be manageable, but large enough to cover a wide range of necessary skills. I really enjoy watching these projects.
Thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it :)
I remember seeing these in James Bond "Diamonds Are Forever" in the theater ..as a kid I wanted one bad......look forward to this being all shiny and showroom fresh again!
It's a classic bike, but that's possibly the worst 'chase' in the Bond franchise lol
@@_allegra Very True...I recall the "Moon Rover" Bond initially escaped in crashed during filming. You can see one of it's wheels roll by in one shot. The chase in Downtown Las Vegas is much better.
Funny you should mention diamonds are forever as i did think about turning this one into a replica of the movie trikes but then i thought the original red looks way better. I also love that scene where the moon rover wheel rolls into shot haha!
Good luck with getting the parts chromed. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you and thanks for watching :)
My girlfriend's dad had one of these on his croft in the Highlands back in the 80s. Had some great fun riding that at the time. :)
Nice, I must say im a tad jealous i'd love to scoot around the highlands on an ATC :)
Can't wait for part 2. You are one clever guy and your attention to detail is second to none.
Thank you for your kind comment :)
Love this channel so much! Can’t wait to follow this series
Another great video - what a cool piece of automotive history! I always enjoy how quiet and calm your videos are 🙂
Thank you very much im glad you enjoy them :)
I'm 13 minutes in and only just realized it's part 1, I'm anxious for the rest!
I guessed it sweet....brings back memories....can't wait for this build 👍👍👍
Very cool! Looking forward to this new restoration series!
Great, leave us with suspense! 1978 huh?! Crazy. That is when I was born. I feel like my chrome has seen better days too!
Excellent start to a great series! Can't wait for the next video! 🤘
I watched this video at twice the speed, it was awesome and I could still understand what you said. I love this channel!
Awesome! Thank you :)
Yes! Had one as a kid, loved these things!
Nice one. Keep up the good work. My guess is a spray booth behind the door. 🤟🤘
That's exactly what i'm thinking 👍😎🏍
Thank you :) Its actually my spray booth that i film in just now because of the good lighting so im afraid you'll have to guess again ;)
thank you sir, i have not seen one of these for about 30 years, my cousin had 2 of them for getting around his farmland in the Shetland Isles. They were great fun to ride, surprisingly nippy. Stay safe and healthy flower.

Outstanding work, my friend! I for one totally appreciate all the hard work and attention to meticulous detail you are endeavoring to restore this beauty. It will be a gem upon completion, I can tell already. I’ve watched the first three episodes and can’t wait for the next episodes! Cheers!!

Great skill, great tools... excellent job

Another great series
Thank you :)
Enjoying this. They are a pretty simple construction, aren't they?
Glad you're enjoying the project so far :) Yeah they are a very simple machine but a pain to restore due to the lack of available parts in the UK :(
Дружище желаю тебе удачи. Ты просто молодец. Мой совет, когда соберёшь трицикл, сделай на двигатель защиту от грязи, иначе он долго не проживет. Жду с нетерпением, когда закончишь работу 👍
Ooooh you’re such a tease, looks like another great series coming up, can’t wait, really love all your work, 👍👍👍
Thank you, Glad to have you along for the ride :)
The close up spray got me dying for some reason😅😂, great job!
Thank you, Really glad you are enjoying my randomness :)
Good work chap.
Oooooooo..... I can't wait to see the coming videos on this project! That's a really cool machine! Splendid job as always mate :)

Going to enjoy this. Maybe as much as when I repeatedly fell off these as a kid :-D
Enjoy buddy :)

A friend of mine had one of these. One day his mom decided she wanted to ride it. It turned over on her and she broke her arm. His dad sold it soon after that! Looking forward to the build. I am sure it will be really nice when finished!
Cool project.
