100 motor question

[Hotshoe]

Hello, I am trying to build a bike for the Marty Tripes Vintage 100 class in S Cal. I would like to use a Hodaka 100 motor. Are all the 100 motors the same or is there a year that would work better for vintage mx racing? Ate the motor mounts the same on all the motors? Could you use a 125 motor and use a 100 cylinder? Thank you, Jay

To have any chance you need the 98 Superrat. If you want to race I would go with a 125 in the 125 class. I say this because we were real involved with the MT 100cc class when they started and like anything it was a big draw. Now its still a big class but for only the post vintage bikes, the vintage twin shocks are pretty much done.

Where are you located?

But let me say if you want to race a 100 with CALVMX they have a class, it mixed with kids a the women and you will have more fun

A late rat engine can be made nearly as fast as a 125, BUT ! Much must be done for it to happen . If you want details give me a call 702=858=9177

I was hoping to race the MT vintage 100 class. The "WORKS" class looked like it was too expensive. Titanium and carbon fiber high dollar bikes. I live up in Sacramento. I thought I would try a couple MT races and maybe some of the AHRMA races. So if that class is slowing down I should probably try something else.

If your racing AHRMA your good with a 100, they get a good turn out and good racing. The MT stuff got out of control even in the vintage class with the money and big bore Hondas.

So how hard is it to find a 98 super rat 100 motor?

[racerclam]

Probably not reaal easy , but I can ask a few friends , one good thing if you find one that needs a cylinder you can also start with a road toad cylinder base and those you cab find.
