I am a new member and was wondering if anybody out there knows what a 1975 250 Penton is worth with 101 miles, all original including the spark plug.Thanks for all the great intel. Slacker

Photos please for a better idea:)

I'm thinking probably not worth anything mostly due to really old sparkplug.  I'll forward shipping instructions this afternoon in order to relieve you of this burden.  It's really the least I can do.  Cheers.

I don't know how to post photo's. The bike has been stored in my brothers family room since 1980. He bought it from the parents of a Vet who unfortunitely did not return home. The white fenders have faded a little but other then that, it is brand new. John Penton signed it and called it a waste of a perfectly good motorcycle. Thanks for your interest.

Hi Slacker,

Go to the "Search" link (top right) and put: "photobucket instructions to load on POG site" into the search window. This will get you a good description of the procedure. Before that post I didn't know how to post pictures either.

Hi Slacker. I really don't know how much a 75 250 is worth. I would say if it were mine and had that history, and had been used very little: it would take a very good reason and a lot of cash to part with. Still if a buyer and seller get together items change hands. Good luck and welcome to the POG. These guys won't steer you wrong.

Thanks everyone.I had a bad crash trail riding alone which took me off 2 wheels in 86. I am now 58 and have the common sense to ride normal so I bought a 71 Steel tank. Then I find out about Penton Owners Group and its unbelievable all the intel out there. I just through the question about the worth of my brothers 250 just see the answers. We like collectable cars and motorcycles and I don't think he has plans to let it go. He knows it's rare. But thanks for all the great and funny responses. Andreas, I will try to figure out the photo bucket and post some pictures.  Slacker
