Now I am curious what parts that sly dog was lookin for? Ron whats up your sleeve now?

I am actually building a 80cc Sachs for you....Al has the gasket kits.[:p]
Ron Carbaugh
Very nice online catalog. Does anyone know why Al doesn't sell the muffler end piece for a Jackpiner any more ?
Bob
I think it is just a manufacturing situation and getting someone to do it at a reasonable cost. Of I am wrong someone else jump in.
Ron Carbaugh
I know why he isent having them reproduced again. Now that we have Pistons for the piner, there are no kicker shafts left or clutch plates or... what size crank bearings ???
I wish I could build some of these hard to find parts :(

Thanks for the info :) I hope he has them made again. It's the end of the exhaust pipe - probably the first piece that gets damaged on that model bike and the only piece I really am lacking.
Bob,
If I find one while I am cleaning out my barn I will send you a email. As far as the parts that Al has reproduced...Al is very picky about the parts he offers and many times has to just stop a project because the part ends up being too expensive. No excuses just facts. Also watch eBay real close and don't just click on Penton...be creative and search exhaust tip, expansion chambers, etc. Good Luck.

Good Morning, Check with Al about the muffler ends.Al had us make up a large qty. a couple of years ago and I know everything is not listed in his Webalog.If the demand is great enough for a item we will reproduce if Al see's a demand.

Thank you. You do excellent work and I look forward to purchasing the piece to fix my exhaust.
there's something about seeing a motorcycle with no front brake that always makes me shiver. [:0]
