Re: 03 pics and question.

Such markings mean nothing to you. Factory used them for matching to cylinders. Should be standard (not oversized).

Re: 250 forks on a Wombat 94 worthy?

Find someone who has stripped a crashed or rusted out 03; the springs will survive. Or go on a 100kajillion/day calorie diet.
I told you to send them to me!

Re: 250 forks on a Wombat 94 worthy?

250 springs are suitable for a 450# rider. Ones from an 03 will be much better.

Ace 90-100 Rods

OK, all you small motor experts, I want to rebuild an Ace 90, with a bad rod. What is the difference (if any) between Ace 90 rods and Ace 100 rods? Stroke is the same, crank pin/bearing is the same. Small end differ, but does it matter? Looks to me (in my ignorance) as though one could likely swap a...

Re: Need help finding out the model of my bike.

That is the primary source of new and used parts for our bikes. Original paint isn't available, but there a...

Re: Holiday Season Resonator

Need it now!
Time to send me any material for the Resonator Revisited, as I'm actively editing. If you have a piece, but haven't sent it , please do so now. If it is imperfect (and whose isn't?) no sweat, we can clean up anything as needed.

Mystery Head

I discovered the head in my stash. Looks like Hodaka, but has no part # embossed on it, has a "lip" on one edge, square area around combustion chamber, sized for 90 or 100. Anyone recognize it?
