Toolsurfer,
I've never been to the Boiling Springs race.

I was a west coast guy until 2000 and was born in 1969 so I missed all the golden years of motorcycle evolution.

Dave sure has a great collection of Penton stuff.

Shane

Awesome collection!

Since everyone is checking their Wassell inventory, I could use a set of rust free fork tubes or complete forks for a Penton Mudlark if anyone has some laying around.

Thanks

Very nice!

Congratulations on the find!

V984 sounds like a '68 model. Pictures would be great to see if it has all the hard to find parts unique to the '68.

I'll let someone else chime in on V3186.

Shane

Looks good Sean! I'll be down there as well, but will just be spectating and taking in the action.

Shane

I would also be interested in the endure kit if Ric is not.
Thanks

I'll officially chime in and say that both the steel tanker and the 501 look great. The only thing I see wrong is that they aren't parked in my garage...

Nice job!

Shane

Thrownchain,
If you get a minute, shoot me an e-mail. I have a question for you.

Thanks

I agree, rinse well, dry and put in sealed plastic bag. Just don't ship it via air mail. They are much fussier. If they ask what's in the package - vintage motorcycle parts.

Shane

Kurt was a good friend of my cousin, Destry Abbott. He will be missed by his family, friends and the industry as a whole. Certainly a rising star that went out too early.

I love watching Baja footage and Dust to Glory was awesome, but it has certainly claimed some great heroes in this sport.

Rest in Peace Kurt
Shane

Fred,
Your bike looks great! It provides me motivation to get some of my projects moving.

I was lucky enough to take custody of Sean's bikes for a while.
V 213 is now together, running and totally complete with all its correct parts (thanks to help from the great POG membership!).

V 99 is in the "parts gathering" phase. I have most of the unobtainable parts at this point and hope to start in on the restoration in the near future.

Sean,
If you are ever in the neighborhood, swing in and take a spin.

Shane

Sounds great Nelson. I will e-mail you offline.
Thanks
Shane

Thanks Dennis. If all else fails, I can fabricate the brake pedal.
I really appreciate the parts and hope you (and everyone else) enjoyed mid Ohio. I sure wished I was there...

Shane

If anyone else has a Wassell brake pedal and rear brake cable (in any condition), I could also use one.

Thanks
Shane
