Did Mr. Penton ever import Motocross only models of his bikes?
I've seen them stripped and converted, but a purpose built model, I have not seen (from the factory)
Thanks,
Howie Lloyd.

76-77 MC-5 models are motocross specific bikes, but dealers could add lights and bolt on Hi-Point rear frame loops if customers wanted to use them for Enduro use, as they almost all had lighting coil Motoplats. Mike

I remember the MC-5's now. I like the 125. So sweet looking!
Thanks for the response.
