Thanks John, I won the flywheel on EBay and I hope to get it soon. The bike has been sitting for about 20 years so I don't know where to start. Do clutches go bad from sitting? I guess I'll try to get it started and then a possible frame off restoration? I'll learn a lot in the process, I hope. Everything probably neens replaced. Any US sourses you reccomend? Thanks , Big Ron

If you can get me a thread size I would appreciate it. I don't have a puller to get the broken piece off, but I was hoping my son could make me one. Problems, problems. Big Ron

My favorite was a white t-shirt with green lettering. I wore it til it fell apart. I'll buy a couple.      Big Ron

Guys, It has taken me a while, but I think I have a picture of the flywheel.  All this time, I thought it was a motoplat, but maybe you can help me identify it and find a new one.  Thank you for all the help; it is very much appreciated.  Big Ron http://www.imagestation.com/album/pictures.html?id=4287702043&album_id=4287702043&upload_source=album_add&hide=1&is_owner=1

Info on the flywheel is Bosch B 212 115 009,    RCP1     6v35-5/18w. This should be a motoplat system , if I remember correctly. This bike was a real runner and I hope it will be again.

I'm still looking for a Bosch flywheel for a 1972 Penton 125. I don't know how much they are worth or how easy it is to find one. Anyone have one lying around that they don't need or any info on the Bosch system? Give me an email or post. Thanks, Big Ron

I need a flywheel for a 1973? Penton 125 ISDT. This bike was reved so high by my son that the flywheel broke years ago and its been sitting in the garage since. I am the original owner and would never part with the bike. I'm now retiring and hope to restore it. It was my second Penton, wish I still had the old steel tank one too.  If anyone can help me locate a flywheel I would appriciate it . Thanks, Big Ron
