You may find your answer by contacting Bobby Lucas in Texas, his number has been mentioned in several past issues of POG newsletter, or can contact Barry Higgins too!
Good luck....

Kjjy: I just joined POG and noticed your question about clutch springs on the forum. DKWRacer is correct, Bobby Lucas in Arlington, TX is one of the local Penton gurus and should be able to help with an answer.  His pager number is 800/805-8676.

CAN YOU STILL GET A SET OF POINTS FOR A 1973 PENTON 125? WILL OTHER IGNITION SETS WORK?

If you go to the home page of POG, you'll see 5 of our compadres listed who either have replacement points that will work for your '73 125 or can tell you who does. I hope this helps.
