I don't have a DR but sounds like a cool time. Maybe another time though, this weekend CLAVMX at Cahilla Creek.

I tried SDAR.com and it goes somewhere else.

Ok the Super Rat is spoke for and I know the new owner will do it good. Another cool thing is when you can trace some history to these things. A Hodaka Club member just picked up this cool flat tracker in Ohio with roots here in California built by Larry Powell. After looking in some Cycle News Archives we found this.

Right in Escondido, I don't really need anymore but they need to be saved.

Hodaka's are easy to bring back to life, there is a very big following, lots of NOS parts and repoped parts. A ton on ebay and a bunch of Hodaka Club members with parts. Here is a recent one brought back from dead from one of the club members. Don't get me wrong depending with what you have to start with and how far you want to go can add up to alot of $$ But the satifaction is wonderful. Here is the last one I saved.

I would need to get $700

Well I do happen to have one I can part with. Your talking about a Model 93 Chrome Tank I would think as its the most notable Hodaka. You can see it has some cool 70s period mods, total custom swingarm, full floating rear brake. I do have a stock frame and swing arm also to bring it back to stock .

Kelly how do you like the KLX110? Are you still running the 3 speed auto? What suspension mods? The KLX/DRZ110 is a cool little bike that comes with a lighting coil in the stock stator and can be made into a 4 speed auto by bolting in a new gear drum. ps I still need to arrange pickup of the KLR bottom end some day soon All this talk of minis makes me wish I didn't sell my CT70 and modified TTR-90. Tim the KLX is a nice little bike and will put a light on it. I plan to mod it just a little, its the bike my boy has progressed too from the XR50. I may add the manule clutch. Its a great pit bike. I can gather up the KLR bottom end and other stuff and bring to the my house. You guys should not have any trouble the kick start bottom end if you decide not to use it.

Chris, I now have three Combat Wombat's and a bunch of other Hodaka's and a rare Rickman Hodaka. Yes I have been trying to thin the bunch. My storage is in Sun City if you ever want to take a look.

Ken, did'nt you have a CW as a kid?

I agree, topics for me appear and disappear when I do a new content refresh. I see things on my desk top and its different on my phone.

I would of just kept at minis IMO. I have a KLX 110 and have done mini days before and had a blast. CALVMX has a mini class thats a blast. I know not everyone has a mini around but mini is mini, tiddler if you want 200cc and under. Again just my own thoughts.

True, I think if they were all put on the exact same bikes we'd have a very similar season. True, but last Saturday, when Steve's bike over heated on this easy trail, I was reminded why I cheer more for the other colors.http://dualsport-sd....982#entry167982 Steve's bike is not set up properly period! Why is this guy on the ground? Did he have a get off?

I'm sending you my opinion. I did see Jim Gibson finish 3rd in the 500cc open class at Day in the Dirt a couple years ago. Oh yea, he was riding a Yamaha YZ 100.

I ride Hodaka because they are bullet proof, see right here. 100cc Hodaka Road Toad on the TAT http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=893598 I also like saving lots and lots of money.

Chris, Happy Birthday

I have felt your pain. For my 3 modern 4 strokes I start them every other week. I have never had a problem with the 2 strokes sitting. Lucky I have my RV here at the house a start the gen monthly. For the lawn equipment I run them enough. I do know at the lawn mower shop you can buy lead fuel in a 1/2 gal, it cost around 5 bucks. The guy said its just for this issue.

Charlie, look forward to seeing you there. This will be my third but still feel like a noob because I still have not mastered my GPS beyond the on button. Yes be ready for any weather.

They need to sell 75 tickets to show the movie. Why We Ride

I made mine today.

When we towed a jeep I found it a bit limiting , do we jeep or ride. I didn't want to tow a big flat bed, so this is my set up. Toyota 4x4, been using this set up for about 6 years. I been in the dunes of Oregon to the rocks in Moab. I can put three vintage bike or 2 modern bikes with no problem.

Darn, I thought I was the lucky one to get a PM.

Even Robby Gordon is having fuel problems. I am confident HRC can solve this, thats the main reason to race, the brand new bike. If you saw this thing last night you would think so also. OK I watched the robot and I think so what?? Its going to cure the fuel problem.
