He bagged his limit before coming through Santa Fe!!!

Contact Chadd Mowery! Chad shops for a lot of us. He’s out of Florida but goes coast to coast! Here’s his number: (610) 823-8063

Tell him Victor in Santa Fe referred you! Chadd a good guy, communicates well and uses a 22’ trailer for transport. Victor

I just bought an entire bottom end rebuild kit for my 175SL. Same as the 250’s. If you call Terry, he can give you a part number for a 175/250 bottom end kit instead of ordering individual pieces. It’s only about $20 more than a 100/125 kit! Victor

Bob Whitman! I emailed you an article for the 1972 Model 94 Wombat Resto-Mod I’ve been building! All that’s left is to take the bike down to him! I’ll be leaving to deliver it before you publish the Spring newsletter! Victor

I’m pretty sure if you talk to Terry he can tell you the diameter of the OEM kick shaft and probably tell you the number of splines. He also offers a replacement, extended kick shaft. So give Terry a Call at about 10 am Central Time, before he gets busy! His number is (314) 313-5635. Good luck! :uge...

I can, however, give you the part numbers.

Kick Lever only part number 714700L. Kick Lever and Extended shaft part number 714700-11. They are on the Hodaka-Parts.com website. Victor

Here are a couple of photos! Victor

Mike. Unfortunately, the ED250 was picked up February 6th. It left here & went to Hodaka Dave and John Aloi picked up the bike on March 15th from Dave and took it home to Kentucky. So I no longer have access to the bike to do the measurement for you. Sorry. Victor.

Clarence. The base coat under the blue & the knee pad color is Krylon K01403 Special Metallic Aluminum. The blue is DupliColor BFM0340, Ford Metallic Royal Blue.Then it’s all covered with Dupli-Color BCL0125 Clear Exact-Match Automotive Top Coat. All paints are rattle can. I put 2 coats of the A...

She’s looking great Albert! Sounds like you’re gonna have a lot of fun!!! Victor!

She’s getting there! You’re doing a great job!!! Victor

There is also a VM 24mm in the 93x Super Rats. It has a lever choke instead of the pull button choke. Make sure you get the carb correctly identified. Victor

Albert. I use a 3 way bullet connector at the ignition coil connection. 1 for the black wire from the stator, 2 for the condenser & 3 for the kill switch connection. 3 male bullets on everything which connects and a 3 way female bullet in the black wire from the ignition coil! Here’s a Super Rat...

Here’s what I use. Very close to the original! Not expensive either! Same color as the Rustoleum Safety Red but much easier to use. Second coats well with no crackling. Rub it with a 3M scuff pad on between coats! I still use a self etching primer under neath first. Victor

Well that’s what I thought. Yes, just about everything is useable in an 83B except the carb body and the needle jet tube from the 83A carb. So he has an 83B he will send me. Victor

Hey Ed! I think I got a bad trade here. I traded a highly sought after Super Rat kill switch for a 94 Wombat carb. However, the needle jet has no shroud so it turns out I got sent a VM24 SH-83A not a 83B. Is this really just a paper weight? Can anything be done with it besides DO NOT USE IT? I’ve le...

Great news! Sorry I couldn’t help. All those rear fenders were all Wombat fenders. Really thought I had an Ace rear fender in the bunch! Once you get the tail light on, you won’t notice much of a difference. It would take a critical eye having experience with both to know the difference between a B ...

He stopped by on his way up to you! He said it was way too cold at the Sandia Man Cave this Winter. He will probably stay closer to Las Cruces next Winter. He likes the weather in Mexico, but says there are too many expatriated Americans moving there for his liking! Then he said he would probably Su...

You can use Wombat stators as well. Victor

I looked. I found 3 Wombat rear fenders but no Ace rear fenders. Sorry! Victor

Are you talking about the neutral indicator light?
Here’s the path for the wire. The light green wire goes up from the shift cover into the main harness. Then it follows the light green wire to the indicator light.

Victor

Do you need a stator? Victor

Unfortunately, Alan can’t come into the U.S. this year because he sold a bike from Canada to someone in the U.S. & somebody at Border Patrol didn’t like it. So he won’t be at Hodaka Days this year. Victor

Oh My! Well, at least Terry has everything you need at Hodaka-Parts.com.

BTW, remember to check your flywheel and make sure it got upgraded in accordance with the Service Bulletin! Here’s a copy for you, just in case…. Victor

My buddy Alan Donovan has a frame up restored Ace 100 B+ for sale in the Vancouver area. He’s in Mapleridge British Columbia. You could fly in to Vancouver, rent a truck and drive down to Hodaka Days. But it’s a full 8 hour drive. I can give you his contact info if you’re interested. I think he want...
