They might be for a GS. I know the 77&76 MC's and GS's are slightly different.

Look at RTR Moto.com for fenders. They are a thicker, high gloss plastics. I don't think they have side panels for 77 or 78's. I've had good luck with painting DC plastics if I bead blast first.

If you are looking for the C shaped graphics for a 77 / 76, Fastlane MX graphics has perforated decals in that style. I've had them on my bike with the Clarke tank for close to a year, gas in the tank, without any issues. Contact Bryan, he does good work.

Penton Talk / MC5 footpeg replacement
March 02, 2022, 03:10:36 PM
I bent and broke one of my pegs off. I have a 77 mc5 with the high / low foot peg mounts. Are there any aftermarket replacements or other bike applications that will fit. Looking for possible options.
Thanks,
Mike

There's a guy out here that has one for sale. His name is Lloyd Boland. I don't have a number for him but I'll probably see him on the 19th. I'll try to steer him in your direction.

Penton Talk / 1976 Penton MC5 250 Fiberglass Tank Leak

I agree. I was told the prep was a critical step. Multiple washes and shaking it with drywall screws inside to rough up the surface was recommended.

Was it Caswell tank sealer. It worked for me on the same repair.

Trying to tone down the powerband a little bit. I have a PVL on there now.

Look at RTR-Moto.com. He makes some nice fenders. Good quality, high gloss.

Penton Talk / Front wheel offset
March 26, 2020, 10:39:55 AM
Thanks everyone. I double checked the hub assembly, everything is correct. I made an adjustment with the spokes and just by loosening the brake side 3/4 turn it corrected itself about half or so of what I need to get it centered. I'll finish truing the wheel tonight, I'm hoping it will get very close without too much tightening on the other side. I'm hoping I don't have to pull the tire. Tires are right up on my list with sit ups. Thanks again.

Looks like DC plastics. Has anyone used any? Any good?
