Anbody recognize this? I have three of them I got in a small Hodaka inventory. They are all marked 740148.

No idea here, but nifty set-up with the integrated single-wire kill button. I'm not sure how it works, as in, where is the cable opening?

Purty basic setup. Single cable, no oil injection setup.

Is that picture displayed backward or is this some contraption for dudes who want the twist grip on the left?

I have no idea what that grip assembly was made for - but it has a pretty small cable "take up wheel", so it must be for connection to a small carburetor.

PS: Matt, for the second picture, just imagine you are straddling the front wheel looking at the bars. ;)
Keep the rubber side down!

Thanks Captain. The problem is with my computer. It is flipping the image 180 deg. If that kill button is immovable, just grab the housing to button the bike? Cool. Never seen that before. Minibike part?
