I am always amazed at the time Ed puts into answering our questions. Thanks so much!
Thanks to you Paul and all the others for sharing your vast knowledge.
Without this forum a lot of us would be out there wondering around on our own.

I will second that. This Hodaka forum is by far the best motorcycle forum that I have seen and of course that is simply due to the people that are involved with it. Thanks!

Thanks guys and gals. It is all because of all of you!
The forum has served it purpose to educate and be a place to voice ideas and opinions.
Thank you all and a special thanks to the Captain. Where else can you still get personalized help from the vintage motorcycle brands service manager?
Not only the service manager but also the official Hodaka pin up model
Penelope Pitstop has nothing on Ed !!
Capt. call me one of these days......

They are kinda rare as Ed bought everyone of them up!!
He was giving them out as Christmas presents
I told him to call me but I guess he is calling me #$%&*(@#$ out loud instead of using the phone......

FYI -- Burt and I are good buddies, and he got the short straw for that particular photo-shoot. So there are no such pin-up photos of me.
Ed
PS: Paulie, ya'll need a slap up along side the head!
I thought you said give me a call "one of these days" -- one of these days is coming up soon. Who knows, possibly this afternoon (Athena time)

Paulie - don't you have some grandkids to play with or something? (rather than scanning old stuff and posting things and comments that make me spew coffee when I see 'em? I've been chuckling all day about this latest one.
)
Ed
PS: We've been out to have a brew or two . . . what's so hard to understand about the term "windbreaker"?

Miss you Eddie!
Give Miss Judy a hug from us also.
Grandkids are all safe and smiling and so am I. Tractor and dozer are running great.Funny how grandsons love to push down old trees.
If you go to Mo's I'll take four stuffed avocado's with crab.
The guy at the wine shop at Devil's Punch Bowl will know who you are but don't expect a discount
Good thing you drink good beer.
Bob Whitman said you turned in your article last week??? You sure know how to make a guy look bad!
I have to send to you and Kenny the Pedersen article part 2 tomorrow to be sure I am politically correct......
Smile have fun and enjoy your grand kids too !
See ya soon I promise .....or is that a threat

You all need to be good to Ed, he probably still has a case or two of these Ace vice's, I sure like mine. If you are nice he may just give you one if he has any. -------Clarence

Hey! That looks like it might be an ACE 90 vise! (just shy of 4" jaw opening)
Ed
PS: I've never seen an "ACE" vice. I wonder if they were built before or after "ACME" vises?? (beep-beep)
