Needed: Sachs 125/6B Connecting Rod Kit

[namgar]

I am in pretty desperate need of a Sachs 125/6B connecting rod kit.  I've tried all the usual suspectss (I have one on order from Al B.) but I have been waiting for almost four months.  I complete missed using my Penton for the first half of the AHRMA Mid-Atlantic series and would really like to get it going before we resume in Sept.  I don't mind buying another one from a second source other than Al since I have another engine I will be rebuilding in the fall anyway.  Doe's anyone have a lead on these?  An NOS unit is highly preferred since I have completely rebuilt the rest of the engine/transmission and bike in general.

Thanks!

Contact Forest Stahl @ 765-284-7593 (Advance Tool and Die) he can get the kits for you from Euro Rod.  Forest is a dealer and can also rebuild your crank as he just did three "B" cranks for me!

 I sent the Hammers a note. if Forest is out of rod kits then they may be able to help. we should know in a day.

Don't forget when looking at Rod Kits, the "B" crank pin is the longer one(roughly 56mm) and the "A" crank pin is the shorter one (roughly 53mm)

Will ,
 Just talked to Jake Fisher.
 he has a bunch of the B rod kits in stock
Hope this helps every one.
 Jake said he would bring some to Mid Ohio
 He also has the inner race pullers for the M20 main bearings he will bring

Dennis,
 here is the short cut to their web site.
 you can contact them from there. if they dont answer in a day or so, copy the email address and send them another one from your home email.

 they are great folks and understand english. use the part # out of your Penton parts book. its the same # that Sachs used for engine parts.
email adress listed is
