The Hodaka Club Forum

Okay, disclaimer: 10 Motos of racing and my fingers don’t always hit the GoPro button - so a lot of PV on this video. But racing is racing, right?
Some of you may know that Connie LeBlanc, who loves racing more than anything, had a bout with a brain tumor - she’s gotten through it, and this weekend was her first race back after two years off - it was great getting roosted by her!

Very nice Laurie, great ending.

As you know, Max always loves your movies! Nice job Laurie, Excellent end clip. Keep up the good work.

Max

Thanks guys. I tried a new mount position on the GoPro - under the visor. Visibility was not impeded, and I thought the POV was cool.
But it did freak out other riders, most of wish were convinced I couldn't see...

As an aside, fellow 2 Brothers teammate Brian Miller saw me trying to push my Penton off a cliff after the first moto - he offered me his Rat for the 2nd moto, and he didn't have to ask twice.
Wow, that bike was fantastic! Kudos to Hodaka Dave on the engine - it was SWEET!

I always get a kick from your videos. Keep them coming!

Pep,

Inquiring minds want to know . . . why would you have been trying to push your Penton off a cliff?

You weren't trying to snick your shifts on the Penton were you?

Ed

Unless I have some sort of corrective foot surgery, Sachs shifting does not appear to be for me.
Love the bike - great handling, but it abandons me in every corner.

Maybe a Pentaka (Hodenton?) project is in order for 2016...

Until then, it's a Super Rat and:
