Did I post a video? Down about 20 in the posts? (Clarence Taber thanks taxpayers ---)

I would ask Victor. In the mean time it is compression, fuel and spark at the right time. fuel could be one squirt out of a oil can. Good looking scooter. ---- Clarence

I covered riding my hodaka in a short video ---- Clarence Taber A colorful life and career in the Forest Service.

You know Victor I always try to add a little humor to the fast pace of life. If I ever really offended anyone, I would not have meant to. -------------- Clarence

I went to school with Tge Orger and man did he have good looking sisters. I never rode a 175 but I sold one at hodaka days for about $650 a few years ago. Clarence

How many 175cc hodakas were made? Did they ride well? Clarence

I would just use a little block of wood and sand paper using finer paper as you get close. No sweat small stuff. --- Clarence

I think that is slow for the quarter mile?? Clarence

I did not know that Joey Chestnut was a world champion? ---- Clarence

What is the differences in clutches between a 100B model 92B+ and a super rat, MX model 93A or a 93B, and the 125 cc wombat. ------------ Clarence

A side note. Hodaka changed the mixing chamber body, also called the carburetor body die casting. The change was on the ace 100, June 6th 1968 on engine 26120. The ace 90 and earlier engines the choke only worked with a closed throttle. Dirty_Rats pictures show the new version ----------------------...

This could be me standing alone. The hodaka transmission was built for a clutch to be used. Every counter shaft has 20 holes and each counter shaft has 20 counter balls. Each counter gear has four recessed areas for the balls on the counter shaft to slip into, locking that gear to the shaft. Just to...

Good to hear it is running. If it were mine I would change the jet needle or the needle jet so I would end up with the clip in the middle. This would give me a quick adjustment for elevation ect. The words experimenting with a bigger jet just scares me. Many new motors have been ruined checking for ...

Victor You stated 'The Road Toad specks for the carb are what I use for jetting and tuning". Can you tell us the process you use for jetting and tuning? Looking forward to Hodaka Days --------- Clarence

Mike, Taber as in Taber Corn *** where are you, I'm in Kalispell MT. Clarence

I will look at it too, but I will say the ,012 to ,014. Clarence

Tell the wife, she tells me my memory is getting better, because every time I tell a story, I add more and it gets bigger. I know the changes but I measured the differences, looked up the part numbers and used the correct name.-----Clarence

This is very important to me if the kick roller pins are not centered and seated in the kick gear, they would damage the kick shaft and ruin the kick roller retainer. I have machined seventy five thousands off the kick shaft just to center mine. It keeps the hodaka from making the skritch sound, the...

Center to center on the fork tube for the first ace 90 was 5&7/8 the same for the MK11 hodaka and the ace 100. As I think the 92A, 92B and the 92B+ are 6&1/2 inches center to center and the same for the super combat. The handle bar holder 908727 was 2&1/8 between bolts. The MK11 measured...

My learning curve must be going backwards. What is the amount of cut measured in? Could I transform a 1.5 slide into a 2.5 slide? In the day I only raced a ace90. It ran the best with a 1 and 3/16 inch AMAL monobloc carburetor probably off a 650 triumph. I did well in the IESRA, Inland Empire Sports...

Looks better, than any I have ever seen before. Clarence

How wide were the forks on the first hodaka ACE 90 before the MK11, the hodaka 90 MK11 and the ace 100 center to center. ---------- Clarence

But in the day, when we modified our race bike and the race was tomorrow, you did what you needed to do in that moment in time. I would not recommend it to any one. We were good tuners and to me Harry was among the very best, of the best. ------Clarence

In the racing years we cut the slide ourselves. Just made it happen. ----- Clarence
