Kelly on a Hodaka Trials bike

[TrophyHunter 15]

SoCalHodaka in action. I was checking the Hodaka Days site and found this. Pyro...this years event may be during your time in Oregon...

A Hodaka was my first "real" motorcycle so this site brings back memories.

Nice pic Kelly!

Hey Ken hi, thats a really cool bike I got to ride in that event. That is really a actual 1 of 2 Hodaka prototype bikes that Hodaka was thinking about selling. It's called the Bullfrog and is owned by Ed Chestnut who work for Hodaka and he still competes on that bike in vintage trials. Building Hodaka trials bike have become very popular in the last few years to compete in the vintage trials events. I'm currently working on one of my own. Check it out. Its a 125 cc with frame mods like de raking the front steering, a boxed swenco swing arm that was the hot ticket in the 70s, Bultaco forks, Honda hubs mounted to Akront rims from the 70s, custom hand made tank, pipe and air box, and a special weighted clutch and flywheel.

I'm going to let Pyro know where the event will be, it would be cool to see him roll in.

That's some unique pipe routing!

Trials riders don't want to get their exhaust squished.
