Thanks, its a 1970 HKO with a Takagawa 88, cam, carb and pipe. NOS speedo from a S90 I think? Have had a small issue with case pressure but got that resolved. Runs about 52mph. Needs a 1 tooth bigger front sprocket to be done. Had the stickers made.

Thanks for the compliments, Takagawa is a brand name. The case has a breather on top, but its not big enough when you start doing a bunch of mods. The interneals build up pressure with a bigger cylinder and you have to relieve the pressure or it with blow out your seals. My sprocket are 15 front 35 rear. Bought all the parts at CHP and Lyle helped me with the jetting. Its a great combination with the cam, carb, pipe and 88 cylinder. Am thinking about building one for myself on a HK1 frame maybe bigger!

Sorry, forgot to reply about the stickers (Trail 88) I had them made here locally. They are $35 plus shipping. PM me if you want to order a set. Takes a couple of days to have made.
