When were the trifold flyer's / brochures printed and where were they printed? For the 100B model 92A?, 100B 92B? and the 100B+. Dates and where were they printed? ------ Clarence

I had forgot the black battery box and the black naugahyde mud protector. It would be nice to see the frame serial number. Bruce's is just ten off of mine. my spelling ?? Clarence

When we use the term hodakas are red that was the term often used. When you describe the color of paint on a early hodaka, red is not a term to describe the original paint for the ace 90, ace100and the 100B's. They were a red orange, no more red than max's color but not a bright red. Clarence

The hodaka, painted black Nigerian motorcycle also had a black wire cover. They were offered to the dealers at quite a discount as I remember, or else I would never have bought them. My receipt shows that I sold one June 26 1970. my hodakas sold fast sometimes ordering 6 a week. I sold mine to a cus...

the Nigerian black hodaka had a black gas cap and black dip stick to check the oil. I have the receipt when I sold one of mine. I will look up the date. Clarence

Having uncrated many over 100 new hodakas in the day, my observation was they were not red. they had a tint of orange, but not a faded red. They may have faded more on the sunny side of Texas and New Mexico. I never sold a dirt squirt so can't comment on its color. I did sell about 50 super rats. I ...

It did not take very much of a spill to mess up the steering blocks , stops. ----------- Clarence

The Ace 100 was a model 92 but not a B model. The ace 100B was made after the model 92,s and had three models 92A, 92B that turned into a 92B+. there were some early hodaka's made that were black but very few. ----------- Clarence

Early hodaka painting was enamel called by hodaka (hodaka red) it was applied using the electrostatic process and cured by baking. ------------- Clarence

I would start with seals and gaskets you will need them. Other than that, the condition of the other other engine parts and the acceptable tolerances would dictate what to order. I would not bore and use a new piston, if it was good to go. ---- Clarence

One of the things we did back in the day, was to extend the frame in the front. ----- Clarence

Hodaka painted with a electrostatic process. How did hodaka cure the painted items and what did they call the color of the paint they used from 1964 to about 1973? --Clarence

sure looks Zippie to me. -- Clarence

Ed your answer is the one I was looking for. I think it has something to do with our age (my age)? To us of the past, a long stroke engine is going to be a slow rpm engine with a lot of torque, boom, boom, boom. A short stroke engine is not going to have allot of torque but will be a screamer. In th...

You could all be right and I could be all alone, on top of the hill. Ed can you help me, Buferd, Victor . ----- Clarence

Not a Greeves. What is your answer Ed?

What is meant by the term, square engine? ------

New question. How many coats of paint, did a hodaka receive and how was it applied? Clarence

Brian good to see you are still on here! Clarence T-- Montana

Victor the 92B had a high fender also. The front fender and fender stay are the same between the 92B and the 92B+. The only difference between the literature and , brochure are for the 92B verses the 92B+ are the chain/sprocket and engine internals on the 92B+. Clarence

If with the Dale check method you are getting a very good spark the condenser is good. I can also check my points with the battery system. Clarence

Victor the picture labeled A is a ace 90 pipe. Picture B is a Ace 100 pipe. C is the 100B model 92A pipe, also note the 100B 92A would also have the lower front fender. Pipe D would be for the 100B model 92B, later referred to as a 100B+ and for the factory 100B model 92B+ that had changes and inter...

As I put my hodaka B+ information to bed I read my 100B+ manual owners hand book and illustrated parts list. It list part number 929510D as the owners hand book for the 92B+... therefor 929510C for the 92B and 929510B for the 92A. The Ace 100 manual number is 929510A. The last thing there is not a f...

On page 62 of the HODAKA book written Ken Smiths it mentions several times that a Ace100A never existed. That is absolutely correct there was never a model Ace 100A ever produced. The three models produced after the Ace 100 were each called a 100B so you had a 100B (model 92A), a 100B - model (92B) ...

On pages 73 and 74 of Ken Smiths book HODAKA what models do those two flyers cover? Not fare looking with a glass!
