I have an excellent, original, '72 Jackpiner on offer. Serial 21459618 and I cannot see that one item is missing. Original tank, aluminum fenders, full enduro/road legal kit including brake light switch (!), and so on. The engine ran fine when I brought it home from its first owner a few years ago - it did not shift that great but I imagine that is clutch adjustment, nothing scary. The wheel rims have surface rust so I am including a pair of new original Radielli rims with the bike. The buyer will also be forced to take the remainder of my Penton parts when this bike is picked up (3 to 4 cubic feet of some pretty good stuff!) so deal with it. Buyer will be the 2nd ever owner as I never transferred the title to me. The only flaws I can report are a minor dent in the exhaust pipe about three inches from the spark arrester/stinger - easy to reach and two small puncture holes in the seat cover. Best offer north of $1,800 by July 1st will be accepted.
The '74 is not quite as sweet (it's a parts bike!). Good tank, similar dent in exhaust pipe to above, forks are very good, Akront mud-catchers in good shape, chain guards and guides very good. If your offer is over $300 and higher than the others it is yours. Bill of sale only on this one.
I will send corner photos of these if you 1.)email [email protected], 2.)are more than just curious (hint: have the money), 3.) don't try to chisel the price without even seeing the bikes (yep, come and take a look, otherwise take my word for it), and 4.) do not ask me to ship it (won't happen, although I can bring it as far as Wauseon in mid-July).
Respond with a friendly email and I will likely share my phone number and any sensible questions can be answered.
A guy reading one of my long ago eBay offerings (hate those people!)asked if I graduated as an English major - umm, yes, sorry for the verbosity, I get to stringing words together and ......

With all the words yesterday I still omitted the bikes' location -----Grand Rapids, Michigan. I have to admit, a little knuckleheaded on my part.
I will try to post photos after I revisit the instructions; I have crossed swords with the procedure in the past. Thanks.

Both bikes are sold, along with a very generous amount of good parts. As inquiries were so slow in coming and so void of commitment, even after emailing photos, I felt compelled to take the first serious (he sent the money!) offer. Thanks to all who clicked on the post. Jim
