Just picked up a 1979 Fantic 125 and found some partslists and info on French sites. The documentation said it needs 1.3 liter of oil for the engine is that correct and which oil is best ?


TIA,

Ed

1000cc is correct, there is a screw on clutch cover. 1 liter will be just below. more will run out. i use atf

Thanks Lee !

If i'm correct you installed the forks from a Section on your twinshok Fantic. Would they work on a 125 model ? i have a complete Section that i dont use anymore and would like to the same while restoring the original forks.


Cheers,

The section forks can be made to fit but it is quite a bit of work. Machining the brake plate for a bigger axle means it cannot be used with the old smaller axle once your forks are rewoked. PM me , i have an idea!

I was thinking about swapping the complete front with diskbrake and all, not to adapt the Mazzochi forks for using the drumbrake-wheel like you did. Pm'd you my phonenumber anyway
