Dave,

I apologized in the email I sent to you for being an ass and deciding not to sell the bike.
 As I wrote.."I also got an email from another member on the Penton Website that told me the bike is worth about 1200.00  because of the date, year, etc.. so I hate to be an ass but I wasn't aware that the bile was worth that much.  I'm speaking to my brother and I think I am going to bring it to his house and he's going to sit on it for a while, perhaps until the economy gets better and then decide what to do with it. Thanks for your interest. If he decides to list it, I'll be sure to let you know."

There was/is no better offer...just some feedback from someone who knows the bike and was kind enough to share they're knowledge with me.  I'll still let you know if/when the bike is listed despite your rudeness.

Thanks for all the interest in the Bike... I don't want to start any biding wars. Dave -  I will call you on Friday AM if that's ok and there is also a note here from someone in my yahoo email who made me an offer.. I'm glad to know that it will someday ride again.. My brother was the second owner of the bike and it has alot of memories.. The original owner was a friend who lived up the street from us and I think all of had a Penton, Husky or Hodaka, among others..      

Anyway, I do have the head, the carb I think (I'll check the box) and the pipe but the pipe, while intact, is fairly rotted I believe.. Anyway hope to speak with you on Friday.  Thanks much !!

Wayne

I have my brother's 1974 Penton KTM, I think 175 ? sitting in my cellar for the last 15+ years.. It's all original.. The air in the tires amazingly enough is still there from the 70's...  Anyway, it comes with a small box of misc stuff..head, etc.. I'm hoping someone will want to restore it back to life.  I'm looking for a resonable offer ?? a few hundred bucks.  I also have a "brand new Mini-bike" that I bought for one of my daughters a few years ago who never got that interested and is nearly as new as the day I received it. I'm looking for $ 500 bucks for it which is 1/2 of what I paid then.  

The bike is located central Massachusetts.. North of Worcester..  I uploaded a bunch of pics to a site I saw from another add on this website so if you want to see the bike, here's a link.

Any interest can be sent to [email protected].  Thanks, Wayne
