New bike I picked up

My new ride, well it will be when I get the carb parts so I can get it running.  Bring back a few memories of youth gone by?

No they went out of buisness in I think 76.  Google Ode to Hodaka kind of an interesting history.  I had it running this morning and rode it up and down the street a few times then it stalled out.  Not sure what the issue is now......

A little history on the bike: sat in the basement of a house with a few others for best guess twenty years.  The one I got may have a crank case seal problem ( crack the case).  Guess that should be expected for a bike sitting this long. I believe it's all original short of the back tire appears to be somthing other then a knobby.  "weird" The other one which a friend  of mine purchased was the street version Ace 100.  I couldn't afford one back them days or those damn porches Roger sells, but I used to go into his lot and check em out.  Always liked the 911T white with black stripe below the doors.

I like the looks of that bike. Very clean. :2vrolijk_21: What are your intentions with it. Restore it and keep it or sell it?
