I've got a 72 or 73 Six-Days that has been in the family since it was a couple of years old. Has anyone ever tried to register a Penton for the street in TX? Many moons ago I saw one at an auction or going out of business sale at the old "Penton Central" in Amarillo, TX. It had head and taillights, a speedometer, and brakelight switches. It also had tags and an inspection sticker on it, so I know it was possible to register for the street at one time. Is there a source for the parts for my Sixer to make it legal? Thanks,

Russ it is possible, but you have to jump around the law which is natural for us Texans. We need to visit by phone and e-mail and I will help you with what I can.

Remember, everything is legal, until you're caught, especially in Texas!!

Thanks Ron,
Are you planning on attending the AHRMA regional in Sherman this Sunday? If you're there, look me up! I've worked at the trak for a couple of years, and will be "event coordinator" for the race this weekend.

I had a '74 Six-Day (rocket) registered in MA. The necessary equipment to do it probably cost me a total of 15-20 bucks. I bought a just barely street legal tail light w/license plate light for about 10 bucks. It was actually quite slick, just about 2.75 - 3" in length and about .75 deep w/two post lamp for brakes. The brake switch I scabbed off of something or other and wired it all into the magneto. If your Six-Day has the headlamp you're all set. The wiring ir really, really basic. Peter
