To hear real estate agent Glenn Gause
talk, you’d
think he was selling HODAKAS.
HODAKA riders come from
all walks of life . . . and each
has his own special reason for
riding.
For Glenn Gause, HODAKA
riding is a source of relaxation
. . . a time for exploring and
enjoying the outdoors, the
hard-to-gel-to places. He takes
pride in his riding abilities and
he takes pride in the bike he
rides. It all adds up to fun-on-
a-HODAKA.
HODAKA gives a rider
confidence because its'unique
design philosophy assures the
greatest amount of dependabil-
ity to be found in any motor-
cycle being built today, regard-
less of size or cost. HODAKA
riders knotv they ride the best
available. The last two years
running, HODAKA was the na-
tional trailbike champion, and
this year won the lOOcc Day-
tona Roadrace Classic.
Glenn Gause sees it this way.
He’s only got time to ride one
motorcycle. His natural choice
just had to be HODAKA, the
one motorcycle that does more
of the things great motorcycles
are supposed to do. And does
them better than any other sin-
gle motorcycle ever built.
In fact, Glenn thinks the
HODAKA is the greatest thing
since real estate.
Some facts about HODAKA. •—
The HODAKA is unique in the mo-
torcycle industry because it comes in
only one size (lOOcc) and one color
(red). Emphasis is on carefully con-
sidered design modifications as the
need demands rather than radical year-
ly changes. To date, over 107 changes
have been designed into the HODAKA,
yet the overall appearance is almost
the same.
Furthermore, almost every design
change that has been made will fit the
first HODAKA built. This makes it
possible for owners of older models to
update their machines. Because of such
design stability, more accessories have
been designed for the HODAKA than
any other single motorcycle.
The performance and reliability of
the HODAKA is legendary. In the 1968
Ponderosa Hare scrambles held at Lan-
caster, California, out of seventy-four
finishers in the lOOcc class, fifty-four
were on HODAKAS. The first ten
places were taken on HODAKAS. Con-
sidering the number of makes a rider
has to choose from, we think this is
mute testimony to the fact that an over-
whelming number of serious competi-
tors consider HODAKA to be their best
bet. The results show this to be a wise
choice.
A five-speed transmission is standard
on the HODAKA. So is the rear view
mirror, owner’s handbook, parts list,
service instructions, a copy of Intelli-
gent Motorcycling, tire pump, tool kit.
extra carburetor main jets. 50-looth
overlay sprocket and attachment hard-
ware. and extra chain length and master
links, ’let. because design stability
keeps retooling costs down, the HODA-
KA ‘100’ five-speed normally retails
around 5.
