Title: '72 Penton 250 Vintage MX'er
Post by: yama_dog on July 22, 2001, 02:55:29 PM
Just traded for a Nice '72 / 250 MX'er and sorting out what it is I have.  

Yellow Tank w/ Black Tank Strap.  Probably a 7/8 and could be a 9/10 with little effort.

Works Shocks (+ orignal shocks)

Has a "Spark Arrestor" (looks kind of like the Breather off an Old Chevy onlt smaller) rather than a silencer.

All in a Pretty Nice Bike.

Can you help with placing a value on the bike?  I am trying to decide whether to Restore / Sell.

Would consider 74 Husky CR250Mag and / or early Yamaha YZ/MX/SC in trade.

I believe that is probably a 73 model.  Where are you located?

I might be able to come up with a 73 360 MX Yamaha, interested in a trade?

Rocket,  '73  360 MX would be of interest as a partial trade.  Shape / part of the country / $'s.

Working on deal for 360, don't know many details at this time.  Illinois is where I am located.  I'll let you know as soon as I do, one way or the other.

Deal fell through on the 360 MX.  Send me an e-mail or give me a phone call, after 6pm central time, and maybe we can work something else out.

Rocket,  Have a new digital in route so will be able to get some pics in the next few days.  Will be out of town Fri / Sat so looking more like Sunday evening.
