Is their a "go-to guy" for Penton/KTM restorations? I am new to POG and have a couple of bikes that need TLC. Don't need museum quality, but a good "10 footer" and excellent reliability for AHRMA. I am in central NC but could ship. Thanks Y'all!

Hi Terrence,
I see your a new member yesterday.  Allow me to be the first to say WELCOME to POG.   There are several here that do engines, suspension components, and a few that will do a turn key job.    If you do NOT have any plans for July 9 to 12 W/E, you should try and visit Pentonville at the Vintage Motorcycle Days, races and swap meet at Mid-Ohio Race Track.  All of those fellows will be in attendance.    Bring your bike and maybe you can send the parts back with them you need work on.  There is a lot to see and do, and I think you will enjoy yourself.  Nelson McCullough  [email protected]

Thanks, Nelson. I hope to be there and shake lots of hands.

hi terrence. welcome to the most informative,congenial discussion board in all of vintage cycling. there are some guys on this site that really DO museum quality restorations. and believe me, they are outstanding. depending on what you would like to have done, there are a number of guys here that can help you and i will throw my name in that lot as well. if you have a project and even if you just want some insight, feel free to drop me a line at [email protected]
since i compete quite a bit in the ahrma races, i get to see a lot of the machines that i have had a hand in rebuilding. again, welcome.
 hopefully i get to see some of you guys at vmd. i'm having to work on that friday and sat but since its only an hour away from me, im going to try to make it there in the early evening. :)
