  1. Thanks Scot. It’s been posted on the Hodaka Club Facebook page a few times. I also rode at the trials at Hodaka days 2019. Cheers
  2. This is my latest Hodaka trials bike build. I started building it in 2018 and rode a few Ahrma and local events in 2019. I Won the Ahrma National championship in 2020 with it. It started life as a Ace 90. It has a Wombat 125 motor that's stock except for some work changing the internal gearing to slow it down. The front end is from a Ty175. I also added a photo of it next to a stock Ace 90 next to it for comparison. Cheers Todd
  3. jbird, You mentioned on another thread you live close to me. I have 2-74's and a 76-250 your welcome to look at. On the 74's, one has a Michelin and the other has a Dunlop. The 76 has a Dunlop. Cheers
  4. jbird, I don't know of any right now. I'll let you know if I hear of anything that comes up. I just started my next project modifying a TY175 frame. I do need a engine for it, so if anybody knows of one please let me know. Cheers
  5. I tried up loading the build shots of the Hodaka but I think they are in a different format. Not a computer guy but my son is so I'll try to get him to do it. Cheers
  6. Hi Scot A lot of people feel the Ace100 is a good choice. I agree only if you are a smaller person. I compete on a TY175 and feel big on it. On an Ace100 I feel ready big. I'm preparing to build another bike using frame bits from a Wombat and a lot of TY stuff. One of the main things I am going to do different is use a cylinder from a Wombat (and reed port it) or an 03 Wombat cylinder. The exhaust port is lower. I also feel the exhaust made the other bike much better. Good luck on your builds. Let me know if you have any more questions. Cheers
  7. Thanks you. The bike started life as a TL125. The only Honda bits left are the fork, wheels, swing arm and back bone. Everything else have been modified. All the new tubing is chrome moly. I lowered and moved back the pegs. This took some time and a few changes to get the bike feeling comfortable. The swing arm now supports the kick stand and also a chain tensioner from a KT250. The shocks have been move forward to about where the stock seat mounts once were. The steering head was cut and moved forward to about 24deg. The upper tube width was determined by how wide the seat was going to be. The seat is from the front 10" of a KTM seat that rides up the tank. The gas tank is Yamaha DT100. The engine is a reeded Combat Wombat 125. I think what really makes the motor work well is the gearing and the pipe off a RM90. My friend Joe said I think it will help with the power through the rpm's (plus I think he wanted to build the pipe). He was right. Good bottom end and when you need more it's there but not crazy snappy. The bike is fun to ride but I made it to pretty. Now I'm afraid to scratch it. So I have to build another Cheers
  8. Here is my Hodaka special at Hodaka Days 2014 bike show.
