The Hodaka Club Forum

I think the old man painter is heading to Montana to help Clarence with a few items. He will send up tools UPS and paint equipment by Bus, I didn't know we still had busses. I am looking forward to the fun I and hope to get some riding in, will post pictures. -------Clarence

Did you replant the zucchinis after the Snow geese ate'm? Tell me about the trails so I'll know which knobbies to pack.

Maxie

The hills are so steep you need a little slip and give or its out of power verses up side down. I hear the tools are coming in this week I hope he sends the big tool box not the little black tote that only weighs about 23.5 pounds but to send the big one it would cost a fortune. He is sending the paint equipment the week after next. -------Clarence

One or two brushes? Are you going to help or watch? I think I'll put in the big engine for more slip---

Maxie

Oh man, I wish I had the time to travel north and hide behind the bushes to watch the goings-on that are coming!

Ed

The tools should arrive tomorrow I will post a picture of what arrives, Hope they are stamped Mac, Snap on ect. Max Tell the old fellow I am a slow learner but am willing to try and duplicate what I have seen. ---------------Clarence

Clarence

Rob it all started on ( day 1 new project ) post # 3, on page 9, picture # 3. When the old man comes north I will invite you up and we will learn what we can. ------------Clarence I need to post the pictures of the tools they have arrived.

Let me know
MTRob

Well my wife Jill took pictures or the UPS delivery 9pounds I was expecting more.Jill took the picture on her camera so I did not load it yet. I will try and post the pictures of the tools . Clarence

Darn funny Clarence! Ya got me. I'll be after you.

Max

PS--Don't be using those knobbies I sent for our ride before I get there.

Bus bringing painting supplies coming in this week or next. I will post pictures upon arrival. I am starting to get anxious, the rains have stopped and good weather is here------------- Clarence

So, where's the hammer? No tool kit is complete without a hammer.

AZ, I think we've run out of room on the "crash cart" tray. I bought a cool Sears rolling stool which has also filled up but handy. Hammers are available over the workbench. Beware the stool, it really does crash. Three times actually. One wants to stay centered when flying around on it.

Max

Max you need to some out riggers on that role/seat tool box, will help with the tip over deal. maybe you can create an all new Hodaka tool/bpx/tool cart, for us all to buy. Bruce Young Hodaka

Hey Bruce, on sale at Sears occasionally but darned dangerous (but also darned handy!)

Maxie

PS--probably too much liability to put a Hodaka name on it! And here's the warning, if you don't sit in the center, it squirts out from under you not unlike wheelieing over backwards!

Doe s this mean the was eat!! is too small or to big! HA HA Maybe is a bulls eye should be painted on the sears one. Or an special instruction sheet or video provided on how to properly mount on the stool. please be carful we don,t heal like we used to after a highside. Bruce

Hey, I just saw this online aptly named "Black Widow shop seat."----Danger!

I forgot to post the picture of the UPS mans delivery. The paint supplies are still coming by bus I hear and I will update pictures then====Clarence

I got a telegram from the old man saying that he's in Clarence's area but can't find the house. I didn't know they still had telegrams. I'm sending some large house numbers to Clarence so the old man can find his way. Old motorcycle racers are sometimes difficult to locate. How else could you find #27's house?

Maxie

PS--Have you seen my paint brushes?

How did you get my number? they did arrive and I was suprised. The bus will arrive in a few days ----Clarence

I couldn't find the cool brass ones--we does the best we can.

Maxie

Clarence or anyone seen the Old man Lately? Last time I saw him he was headed for points North with two paint brushes. Hope he's OK.

Maxie

I can only say he is late, but it is rumored he will arrive next week. I do have to get er done before the weather turns cold. I am going to give him two clutch savers (a 18 dollar value) and a super rat for his troubles.------------Clarence 68 degrees and sunshine today.

Clarence where are mine you promised to send those clutch savers a week ago, before I stick my bikes up on the wall. waiting.
