Re: Steen Hodaka 100 project

measure from the carb body gasket surface to the top of the float while upside down. Should be 22mm or 7/8”, that is a better option than arm height or parallel to the body.

School me

Bought this frame at a swap recently, not familiar with this air can mount bracket. Frame number makes it in the ‘67 to’69 range. Not hodaka? Or just different?

Re: Trials; 90 vs 100

In trials you should never see 5500 rpm. You want torque at low rpm , geared accordingly.

I’ll miss the trip out and back. I’ll miss the pie at Sherri’s. I’ll miss just hanging out in the park. I’ll miss hanging out with friends, the old ones and the new ones. I look forward to bigger and better next year.

Re: Spoke sets

As to your original question, spend your money in the US, that way if there is an issue you have a way to correct it , you buy from China what option do you have to correct it if it’s wrong ?

Re: 125 Wombat Mystery

Get a compression gauge and check the compression, the closer to 150 lbs the better. Also see if you can find a way to do a leak down test. And check that the timing is spot on.

Re: local obit

up here in NY we lost John Flummerfelt. He was the Yamaha dealer in Auburn NY for many years and when he retired he worked at Lane’s Yamaha until he retired for good. John was a super nice guy and a walking wealth of knowledge of Yamaha bikes and parts . He will be missed.

Re: Super rat left case half needed

this one the motor number says it’s 93a, but it does have the needle bearing for the main shaft. Theoretically I could use a Ace case half as long as the decks are the same? ( big deck/ small deck)

Re: Super rat left case half needed

The casting numbers I believe are the same. Ace shafts run in bushings, rat shafts run in needle bearings.

Insert the control shaft from the opposite side and use it to help level the o-ring and get it seated in the slot.
