Happy to report that the 175 was sold to a fellow pogger

I will let everyone know when the 125 goes on craigs list or ebay in the next couple of weeks.  In the mean time if you are interested please email or call.  The price is $1800.

Thanks for the comments on the jackpiner.  It really is a nice bike. gary did a great job on it. Tom

Thanks That does help.  Now does anyone have any 175 chain adjusters for sale?

Thanks Guys.  Do you think I could buy one in good shape for less than $100.00 vs having it restored??

Are the fenders original or repop?  If reproduction where did you get them?
Thanks

The first penton I ever saw was on a trail ride in 1971  I was a  senior in high school and was riding with a couple of the teachers. One was on a 69 six days with all of goodies, lights, speedo, tool bag.. Guess what?? I saw him a couple of years ago and he still has the bike!!! I am going to look him up this summer jst to see if he wants to part with it.

Hi Guys
Thanks for all of the emails about bikes available.  I did come to a verbal agreement on a 72 today. The other good news is that I can pick it up in 5 or so hour drive. I am anxious as can be to get it hopefully next weekend.
Thanks
Tom

A couple of folks have sent me info on the bike in Ca.  I think that bike has some potential, the downsisde is the cost to ship to New Hampshire is 3/4 the cost of the bike. I really would like a 72, since that was the year I had originally,  but if nothing turns up I may go with a '73.  Do you know of anyone making replacement metal fenders for a '72?

Hi Matt

I have only been on the "board" for about 2 weeks and have talked to a couple of real good guys. I am also looking for a 125 six days bike.  i live in Nh so if you hear of one up here let me know.  I did talk to a guy around Atlanta over the weekend that has a 73 125 for sale.  He also has the bike listed on Craig's list atlanta.  His name is Mike and the phone # is 770 289 0869.
Good luck

The 73 JackPiner I listed here last week is now on Craigs list with pictures.  I hope a pogger gets it! $2.700.00.  They do not get much nicer

Hi All
Some things have changed in my situation and I will be selling 2 Pentons.  The first is a 73 jackpiner restored last year by Gary Ellis.  The bike was on display at the Vintage days last summer  in Ohio at the Penton booth.  Gary restored it so there is not much more to say ready to race, ride or show.

The 2nd is a '72 six days restoered and ready to go.  The only blemishes are the original rims
have some rust and a few dent in the exhaust pipe. I will include 2 brand new repo alloy fenders and mud flap and front bracket.

I have a POG price of $4500 for both bikes.  I really want one of the poggers to get them.  If this doesnt's work out I will be forced to sell them seperately on ebay.  I can help with delivery in New England or take to the antique meet in Rhinebeck NY.

Please call or email for more details and pictures.

Hi Guys,  Gary Ellis is bringing a bike to mid ohio for me and I need to find transportation back to the New England area.  I am in NH but would gladly make a 4 hour trip to pick it up somewhere.  Can anyone help out with this. Glad to help out with costs  Thanks Tom

Hi Guys
Sorry about being a bit shy about posting much.  You are all so far ahead of me it's not even funny.  Anyway I am in need of an exhaust shroud for a 72 six days # 51005-054.  I would also consider an enire exhaust system. The other items i am looking for are chain adjusters.# 51-10-184 and 51-10-084
Thanks
Tom

Can anyone recommend a source to restore a vdo speedo?
Thanks
Tom
