All the cool kids had Penton, Rickman and Bultaco dirt bikes back in the day...I had a basic Honda SL100 that I had to convert to off-road.

Still looks like a viable dirt bike for fun off roading (not racing).

Of the non Jap bikes back in the day I liked Husqvarna.
But I actually owned Yamaha dirt bikes from 80cc to 500cc

That's a Penton, as in the pic with HST, not my measly SL100.
