I'm looking for someone to go through the engine on my December 1972 Jackpiner 175. I can handle the rest of the restoration, but I'd feel better letting an expert do the engine/tranny. I read elsewhere on this forum that the KTM Jackpiner cylinders cannot be bored? So what to do if it needs to be repaired? Is there someone near Iowa that specializes in rebuilding the KTM 175s? Thx in advance.

Once finished, I will be delivering a friends KTM to Iowa around the Silver city area, if I can help save you some cost with transport of the engine since I often visit Gary. He rebuilds all of my Penton/KTM engines and he is a very knowledgeable and reputable rebuilder. Mike

Thanks for the reply. I'm traveling right now. I will give you a call when I get home and discuss my rebuild. I get over your way a couple of times a year, so dropping it off shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks a lot for the offer. I'm not quite ready right now, so you will probably finish the bike before I need to get the engine to Gary. But the offer is much appreciated.
I have to say that the guys on this forum are about the most helpful bunch I've ever seen. Thanks to everyone!
