With bike names like the Suoer Rat, Dirt Squirt, Combat Wombat, and Thunderdog they captured the attention of every aspiring dirt biker in America. Hodaka was formed under unique circumstances between an Oregon marketing company and a Japanese engine builder but together they would build a series of dirtbikes that would outsell the likes of Honda Yamaha Kawasaki and Suzuki. However a few mistakes led to the abrupt implosion of the company, This is the story of Hodaka motorcycles
