Title: 1975 Penton frame on E-Bay

A very interesting looking '75 frame on E-Bay.  Just don't expect your '75 airbox to bolt right in!

I was looking at that. What makes it so different?

Rick, the frame is not actually a '75, but from the 76-78 era.  I'm not sure, but some people call it the "spider" frame and most frame parts won't fit.  I think the orange paint would indicate a '78.

I purchased the frame as a back up for my 78 MC5 400.  I will let you know how it works out if you are interested.  Mark Nitchman, [email protected]
