I am not on the forum often and need to be sure that it all stays cool.
Great banner but needs to be posted somewhere's else unfortunately.

I will not allow parts,memorabilia,bikes,posters banners etc.... posted for sale on this forum. Sorry but no exceptions and these are and have always been my rules.
Bikes are allowed on the Marketplace page but lately folks have been trying to sneak parts onto the Marketplace for sale.
Not acceptable.

Thank you for the kind words Bill! It is easy when it is fun and thirty years goes by in the blink of an eye.
When it turns to work it becomes another job
Peace

Hi Bill, I have not spent a lot of time on the forum and just seeing your message. I am not attending this years Hodaka Days event so yes we are still shipping parts orders. As I wrote in my last article in the Resonator Newsletter I am devoting more time to Preston Petty Products and Fortuna's Saus...

909524.jpg Hi Jack we did receive the new tools from Danny. They look great and knowing Danny they also work great!! I supplied Danny with the case hardened original pins and Danny did the rest!! These tools are specific for the early style control shafts (64'-74') http://www.strictlyhodaka.com/Pro...

I second Clarence's post. Everyone attending Hodaka Days this year be safe and have a blast!!
Uncle Kenny in Australia I am sure also wishes you safe travels. Great to see this event still going strong after all these years !!!!

Thank you Jeff for being a part of Team Hodaka down under. Wish I could have been there with you this year. Had a blast though at Unadilla!!
Thanks Ivan, Billy Burns and Scotty Roberts for showing them how it is done on a Hodaka!!

Sorry Bill,
We need a lot of work on the SH website if we are going to continue to sell Hodaka parts.
Here was the correct listing for the carb with new boot. Again I am sorry for the trouble

Marie the passing of Harlan took a lot out of the Hodaka world. Harlan's involvement as a racer and dealer with Hodaka motorcycles since the 1960's will not be forgotten. I think of Harlan in the present tense even though he may have passed his bikes, passion and legacy lives on. He is deeply missed...

I would like to thank everyone for there kind words, after the passing of my husband Harlan Diem. words can't describe how moved I was to read about my husband. He would have loved it, also many thanks to all members for the purchase of Hodaka Parts . With much appreciations, Marie Diem. Paul and Sc...

Yes Bill we are getting close but we want to be sure of what we are selling before we go into major production. We have a Penton gentleman testing one and Ed Chesnut now has one to test also on his Hodaka. I need to get this right as Acerbis will be distributing these worldwide for us once done. A c...

Preston Petty is our consultant/adviser/friend etc.. with whatever we are doing here at Preston Petty Products. There was a question posed about AC/DC to do with the LED bulbs. Here is Preston's response this morning... All good very very good!! tell him: the bulb we are currently using has built-in...

Bill I do not have anymore of the earlier style fenders that you are looking for. There was no name on them like "Baja", "Muder" etc.. they only had the Preston Petty logo. I did have some a few months back after I had purchased a left over inventory but these have all sold now ...

Hi Victor thank you but this will not be happening. The tooling for the Hodaka fenders was not made out of steel but out of other materials so that the tools were a lot more affordable BUT we could only make aprox. 50-60 fenders out of a tool before the tool was worn out. Based on tooling costs and ...

Hi guys, Just spoke with Bruce on the phone and he mentioned this post.Anything is possible with time and money. Bill I do not have anymore of the earlier style fenders that you are looking for. There was no name on them like "Baja", "Muder" etc.. they only had the Preston Petty ...

This is my 12 volt LED on a 6 volt Penton using a standard magneto-points ignition. Testing done this past weekend.

The new reproduction rubber gas caps are made from viton rubber. Very expensive and fuel/oil resistant. Easily can make new gaskets out of plain material for a lot less but they will not last.

Testing over the weekend by someone other than myself provided this information in an email to me. "I gave a light to Sandy at York, he's a friend of a friend. He needed a 6 volt but Jack Penton said a 12 volt should work. When I got home I hooked a 12v LED to a 6v battery, no go. But then I th...

Hi Bill even as late as today we are still in testing. Preston personally is overseeing this operation for us. A lot of this seems easy but realistically takes a year or better to get it right. I can tell you that once finished all my play bikes with lights will have Preston Petty headlights with LE...

Hi Victor, That is NOT what I said... What I said to you in the email was that I no longer had anymore of the spacers to take up excess space between the upper rod bearing and the boss on the underneath side of the new modern Wiseco pistons. I also stated that because of cost to make a production ru...

Looks like my points. These come from Japan and are made by Daichi. Cannot get much better than that.

LOOKING FOR A LITTLE SOMETHING TO DO? I know there are quite a few computer operators/ programmers out there and wondering if anyone wants to tackle the issue of all the spammers getting into our forum or attempting to sign up. From what we can see it looks like we need to upgrade to a newer version...
