Title: Two Penton Projects Completed
Post by: slvrbrdfxr on October 06, 2022, 07:21:41 PM
Hi all,
Finally got a free day this week to put the finishing touches on a couple projects. I've been gathering parts for these builds for many years and started assembly approx 18 months ago. A big thank you to several POG members for their help with some scarce parts, paint and some technical advise especially on the 152 Jackpiner. I ended up using a Puch 175 cylinder head on the Jackpiner build to try and duplicate what I think the early Jackpiner bikes looked like coming out of the Penton R&D shop in Amherst. Couldn't hardly believe how strong the 152 runs when compared to a 125. Overall a couple of fun projects !

Nice work Dave.

It is getting pretty tough to build them back the way they where, original parts are very scarce.
