Penton Talk / Scam Warning
February 06, 2018, 04:39:10 PM
So as to not carry thousands of dollars around in my pocket.. Sometimes I offer to send Money Order/Cashiers Check with instructions to sit on it until seller is happy that it is good.  That way they get their money sooner than if cash at pickup which can be weeks later at pickup.  Lots of ways to skin the cat ( can we still say that?).

Penton Talk / Standard vs O-Ring chain

DID 520 VT2 Narrow Enduro Racing X-Rng chain.  Rocky Mountain ATV carries it, I'm sure it is available elsewhere as well.  Narrower than O-Ring chain so doesn't tear up chain guides in old bikes that weren't designed for wide O-Ring style.  Cheers.

It is probably a good idea to check your junk now and again, regardless.

Penton Talk / G.E.M. reed valve on 250

Rob,
  Also must add that this reed unit is not a GEM but something with no name on it.

Rob,
  I have the mentioned bike and rode it many times years ago.  It has awesome power and even awesomer grunt factor.  Also have a Bing flavored non-reed bike for comparison.  Both have Jemco pipes.  The stocker will require some clutch work down low on occasion whereas the reed bike doesn't.  The Mikuni is actually a 34mm unit bored to 35.5 due to case clearance issues.  Cheers.

So, for bike choice planning, would you describe the terrain as tight woods or more open stuff?  Thanks.

Penton Talk / Al Buehner's dad passes
July 23, 2015, 10:53:12 PM
Al and Dale,
  Sorry to hear about your dad passing.  I can only imagine a 97 year old fella regaling the nurses with tales of the day.  I'm almost afraid to ask if he had a twirled-up mustache.  Sounds like you guys are a strong family.
