Hey all, have been here a while on pog but mainly as an observer of this group's good humor and experience . My experience is with Puch's, having had them for 30 + years, but have been seeking a good entry into Pentonia and I think I have found one. The bike is a 72'/ 73' green tank 125 (Six Days?).. the bike is rough but all there, with no lighting. The motor spins over but the clutch cable or clutch is siezed,  what should I try to check this tranny next time I look it over or is this a small problem? Ready to get after it. Thanks, George.

George,
  The easiest thing to do is pull the clutch side cover and see what can be seen without splitting the cases.  Side cover gaskets are available from suppliers listed.

Hey GC, If you haven't already pulled your tranny oil drain plug, good.  The threads are often times in rough shape and can give you a lot of problems. Just pop the clutch cover off and drain/change the tranny fluid that way.
