I have a 1975 250 Enduro with lights and Motoplat Ignition.  The bike is currently not running as I am restoring it.  I'd like to run a Preston Petty front number plate headlight and the original round tail-brake light.  My original Penton Manual says the ignition is a 35 watt output.  Should I be running 6 or 12 volt bulbs ?  Thanks for any insight.

Looking for any information on Parts, Rebuild kits, or Service manual for the Marzocchi Piggyback shock used on the 1975 Penton 250. Does anyone on the POG site provide a rebuild/repair service for this shock.  Thank you in advance for any information you can share.

Dennis nice find on the GS.  Do you know what manufacturer made the piggyback rear shocks ?  Works Performance maybe ?  Thanks for a reply.

Dale - Thank you for your prompt response.  I'm going to pass for the time being as I need many other parts more urgently for my restoration project.  So Daniel you have my permission to Go For It !!

Thanks for the Parmabike lead.  I am familiar with them.  I'll wait a few days to see if a fellow Pogger has a used one or a good new offer before I contact them for purchase.  Appreciate the info and wisdom on this site.

I have been frustrated for a long time also. Even prior to this post.

It would be nice to have some process that does not require paying for a hosting site.

I don't blame the POG or anyone, but it sure is difficult.

Daniel - Your message hit home with me as I too have some questions about the forks on my 75 250 HS for another message.  I pulled one  fork cap and measured the threads.  They are definitely a 1.00 pitch.  

My bike is a CMF High Breather with laid- down Marzocchi rear shocks, titled as a 1975 model with frame serial number 54-411-79599.  So, a November of 1974 production date.  The forks are the 35mm diameter tapered top tube Ceriani (non-ribbed). Hope this helps.

Victor - Is there a way to contact you ? I'm local SoCal Orange County and interested in some 35mm forks and triple clamps (tapered style for 75 250 Hare Scrambler).  Also interested in what lots (of parts) might be available.

You may email me at [email protected] if preferred for direct contact.  Thanks for a response.

Skip the bike looks great.  I'm rebuilding a 75 Hare Scrambler Enduro.  Where did you get the new rear Enduro fender and taillight assembly ? Thanks for any guidance.

Andreas - Where did you purchase the Enduro rear fender, and the taillight assembly ?  I am in need of the same components for my rebuild of a 1975 250 Hare Scrambler Enduro in the States. Thanks for any info.

Gooddirt - I may be interested in your Euro Enduro Fender.  Does it have the round taillight ?  Is it new or used ?  You can reply and send picture to [email protected] along with any other info.  -   Thanks

Gooddirt - I sent you a message to your email.  Respond if you can.  Thank you.

I am looking for a reproduction Enduro rear fender and round taillight assy to finish off my '75 250 HS Enduro complete restoration/rebuild.  Does KTM World also offer these parts ?  Thanks for any guidance.

Jake - I would like to talk with you about a Penton part question but the phone number shown in the POG Supplier section is no longer in service.  Do you have a phone number I can contact you at.  Thanks in advance.

Nothing received here yet either although I have no information about a stand being shipped to me from my earlier request.  I am still interested and would like to pay for the stand. Please ship to:
