Thanks Ron for calling me and informing me about my old Penton on this web page. I have so many great memories about those bikes. The race track in Lockhart was one of my favorite stomping grounds of that bike. My dad had a Honda dealership before the CR's so he decided to also add the Penton line only so I could be competitive in Texas MX. I am so thankful to my Dad for giving me the chance to be successful in MX. Enjoyed talking with you Ron.

Steve
I remember seeing you at the National Peoria TT, long before it was acceptable to ride an MX bike in TT.  You looked great and us true "dirt bikers" loved your style!!
thanks
