Frame No. prefix A makes that an Ace?

Not a super rat chain guard. ----------Clarence

OK, then which one is it? Victor

The serial number tells you it would be a ace 100B, model number 92B. ----------Clarence

Not a SR for sure

I’m going with dirt squirt

The X pattern on the guard is common with the DS, Wombat and Toad. SR has two parallel lines.

Tabs parts are not mine. The serial number as listed does not fit the model. The ace100B, model 92B and the ace100B, model 92B+ are the long chain guards. Kelly is right again! ------------Clarence .

OK so the “X” is the give away! I didn’t know any other Hodaka used a short, red, chain guard. Seems like the DS guard would be a good choice for Aces wanting to run knobby rear tires that would rub on the Ace chain guard! Is the bolt pattern the same as the Ace??? Victor

I don’t believe it will swap, maybe with some modification anything can work.

You will also note the one with an X on the face of guard has rather square or flat top, the other ones have rounded top. Like Bill said ether one can be made to work with a little back yard engineering. Its the Hodaka way if you don,t or can,t find an original chain cover. Bruce
