1973 Hodaka Wombat. I bought this motorcycle October 2011 as a retirement project. It had 2 previous owners . 200 miles. nd was running. but very cosmetically challenged. I slowly disassembled it and replaced or refurbished the components that needed it. It was a tribute bike to my father who was a Navy fighter pilot. hence his survival knife and Naval Aviation decal. I have always liked the Six Days Trials style of bike. so I attempted to give it that flavor. The engine was rebuilt last winter by a local independent shop with a new crank rebuild. eals. iston. askets. Carb only needed a cleaning. I use Maxima Super M premix at 40:1 per the shops reccomendation. Not electric start. Kick while in neutral with clutch out. Shifts one up. four down. I live at 6000 feet and often ride it in the mountains at 8000 feet altitude. runs very strong. Currently has 4394 miles. Photos taken on 10/10/14 at my house.
