Started up the 79 KTM 175 for the first time and rode around the yard last night in the dark, hopefully will get a chance to ride it this weekend in the daytime.

Got a set of the Renthal Mini High Bend bars for my 74.5 250 - good feeling, fitting and looking handle bars. The Renthal part number for this handle bar is 757 - 02 -SI - 01 - 185.

Got reunited with an old friend. Welcome back W430ST :D



This is the very first Penton/Wassell trials bike I owned. I won an AHRMA championship riding the 2 line with it and made the cover of Vintage Views with it in 2001.

Then like a dummy [8] I sold it to build a better bike many years ago. Getting it back is like stepping into a time machine as it has been sitting on display in an office all these years and is exactly like I sold it.

I got my new project bike started yesterday.  I cleaned the carb, pulled the head to check the cylinder, put some fresh gas in a very clean tank, 10 kicks later, it was running!  Very cool!  It bogs down at very low RPM's, but once I got past that, it ran pretty well.  Suspension feels okay, and it shifts really clean and firm.  I am planning on riding this bike as is for the remainder of this year, and then do a rebuild later this fall.
