Post by: chkitout on December 17, 2000, 01:06:34 AM
I am just curious if any one else has any copies of Keeping Track I have only the March and April 1973 issues. The March issue has a good tech article about caruretion and I am sure other issues might have other good tech tips which might be useful today. I will be happy to share any info in these two issues if anyone is interested.

There was a whole collection of Keeping Track that sold on EBay not long ago.  Does anyone know who bought them?  There are probably some good info that we could all gain something from in reprint.  Let us find this person and convince them.  Anybody up for a hunt?

I posted the carb article awhile back over at the Vinduro eGroup. Here's the links to it :

BTW Walt, I believe I have the exact same issues as you. Let me know if you find any others.

I own several original "Keep'em Winning" for dealers only.  These had dealer info in them that pertained to Penton bikes and products.  I have issues dating from April "71" to July "73" but I am missing a few in between.  Possibly, with Mr Penton's approval, we can reproduce an entire set of the dealer "Keep'em Winning" and the customer "Keeping Track" for POG members.

That would be super Kip.  There would definitely be info there that would help us all.  How can we go about making this happen?

The reprinted Keeping Tracks, sounds like a good idea.   My thoughts are we may be able to post one article a month (or simular) on this site.  That is if the POG Member that bought that set would be willing to send us from the service dept tech tips articles once each month.    It could be made into it's own page.  The object of our site is to always improve and make it more interesting and informative for our visitors and POG Members.   You might say we are trying to operate with the same phylosophy as we did at Penton Imports.   Your ideas and creativness is what will make this the best site for the Penton enthusiast.

Doug and Larry,  I agree completely.  Come on fellow POG members it's up to us to make this work.  Also, anyone interested in the ISDT as it was in the past should check out Vinduro.  There is alot of interesting stuff (info, storys, people, jokes ) that goes on there.
