No, mine is built off a 250b scooter frame, that one is actually a 150 scooter frame so mine is a bigger frame. Mine is cloned off a HONDA REFLEX same size body wise. Look at this rip off dealer advertising a 2009 PST150-9 Ice Bear Trike as if it was a 2015. First of all All the 150 Trikes I believe since 2012 do not come with a REVERSE.

I believe that is an 2009 H model. No longer in production, just like Alleys -9. The new PST150-9 is a MOJO www.rapidrepairpowersports.com/150cc.html. Both machines will be difficult at best to get body parts for. 2009 model year was the last year for reverse in the 150cc class. |

Thanks guys, I have to replace the sight window on the right master cylinder. Not sure if I should get a new assembly or not. Other than body pieces most everything can be replaced. The rack on the back does bolt on. I should have really looked at it better before buying because its been rigged instead of being fixed properly.
I really want to find a windshield for it. If not I may put different handle bars on it and mod it out big time.

Alleyoop www.cycletrader.com/listing/2015-Ice-Bear-TRIKE-110810470I double checked this morning with Ice Bear to see if they were reintroducing this trike. A big NO. as Alley said, that is a 2009 that someone is trying to pass as a 2015. |

Also I have what they called the PST150H model back in 2009 the one you have they called it a PST150-9. Alleyoop www.newrivercyclesalvage.com/index.html |

Thanks guys. Suffered a major set back this week, what thought was carpal tunnel syndrome in both of my wrists turned out to be a upper motor neuron disease. It's gonna take a lot more testing to narrow down which one it is. Either way it's not gonna be a picnic.
I replaced the sight glass in the master cylinder, put new mirrors on and new pink grips..I have to get the correct size battery for it. The idiots put a bigger battery in it and removed the lock from the battery compartment door. After that just need to bleed brakes and check fluids. Gonna be in the 40's and 50's this week so it shouldn't take long.
Off to dinner and drinks to half celebrate my birthday

Since the weather was decent, I got to tear into this thing. Found a broken shock on the rear, looks like someone took out the starter dogs on the pull starter, it does have a uni filter on it. I'm putting a list of stuff together to hunt down. I noticed the intake manifold is covered in silicone, so that will be replaced. Not sure if I can but if the pull starter parts can't be had, is it possible to install the kick starter set up on it?

You really do not want to use the pull starter and here is the reason. When you pull on it it also might loosen the variator nut then crap happens. I am telling you by experience. I went to just try it and then took of and in about a minute a heard some nasty metal to metal grinding in the cvt the nut had come loose and the variator fan was spinning and hitting the cvt cover. Tore my belt and fan blades on the Fan pulley. I then went and took the whole pull starter off and left it open so now it gets more air in the cvt. When you pull on it you are turning the Cup the pull starter grabs the same way to loosen the nut.

This is why I'm asking questions, after looking at the rear shock some more it's not broken. Looks like the bottom clevis was unscrewed all the way. Alley, I'll pm you some model specific questions since yours is close to mine

The weather finally was nice to get things done. New shocks, intake manifold, coil and spark plug are installed. I have a new cdi box to put on it. Fixed exhaust hooked up new battery and started right up. Took it for a mile ride to get it warmed up. Noticed a few things, throttle seems tight, and idle seems a little high. May look for a new throttle cable. Reverse not working so I need to check that out. It also seems jerky when you start out, have to do some reading on that. Had it up to 45 mph and felt sturdy. Ill play with it more tomorrow
