Highly modded Hodaka on ebay
« on: February 28, 2014, 01:46:32 am »
Trolling evilbay and came across this spooky looking jigger:

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Hodaka-Ace-100-Motocrosser-Rare-Special-VMX-Classic-Collectors-/121282363244?pt=AU_Motorcycles&hash=item1c3cfdff6c

Looks to have had a lot of work/development on it but are Hoddies worth that much?

Forum members bike
$5k is a new 200 cc Scooter, a new YZ85 or a used Ninja250
Or in MXers a 2010 RMZ250
My question Why isn't it work $5k?

Possibly because all of the other bikes you have listed you can still buy by the dozen as the saying goes . find another one
If in doubt ,WIND IT OUT

I think has another B50MX that will be raced by Tony Clarke at Port Augusta this year. Well, that was the last Dave told us anyway. I really don't like that Hodaka. Too much green going on, especially the wheels...
Arrogance.....A way of life for the those that having nothing further to learn.

If George Barris was going to build a wild Hodaka in the early 1970's I think it would likely have come out like this one. That is one wild looking bike. The ad says that the front forks are YZ250A. If that's the case shouldn't the tubes be downturned between the triples?
