The article said they only built 400 of them so it's extremely rare.

It does not seem to be posted anymore, IIRC $1800 ?? Now I am wishing I would have jumped on it, DOH! ....
Found the link my history appears to have been sold, was a 1972 125 six days....

I had two of what was basically the same same as the Penton a 1971 125cc Sachs and a 1973 125cc DKW. About the only difference is both of mine had a leading link front end. They are still at the top of my list of all time fun bikes to ride.
This is the 1971 Sachs and the helmet is the first production Bell Star helmet made.
