I need some mechanic work done on a 175 Jackpiner. Just recently bought this bike and it doesn't seem to have any spark. It does have good compression. Might possibly restore it.I am in central IL. PH.618-267-9050  Thanks Will.

Gary Ellis is highly recommended in Illinois just North of Paris. He is very reasonable for engine rebuilding or complete bike builds. The ignition grounding may be the spark issue. Most older Pentons need the crank seals replaced or an air leak can be detrimental and hard to diagnose. Garys ph. Is 217-260-0237 Mike
