300 FANTIC PROFESSIONAL 1984

Hi Everyone,

My buddy just gave me this Trail bike for my son. I think it is a 1984 just by looking at other pics . I live in London Ontario Canada and I cant find anything on these except from over seas. It only has 86.4 kms on it. Its like new.

It has been stored away for 20 years. The gas was drained and the air box was turned into a home for several mice. The air filter is missing and I need to find one? It has 403 stamped on the cover.

Can anyone tell me if there is a Canadian or American dealer?

If I cant find anything, what are they worth? I might have to sell it.

 

Thanks

 

Jerry

Thanks,

I think this site will help me out a lot.

I just need to figure out what year it is first. I will take pics tonight and post tomorrow. I don't want to order the wrong  parts.

I found a few #'s under the front frame. They are 403 DGM 513 _ _ OM .

It also has a 9 digit hand stamp # . Nothing showing the year.

Any info you have with this style of bike will be great.

It's 1984.  They only made them that year.. The Fantics went mono shock the year after. It's a 250cc. Not 300cc

Fantic went bust a few times. Although Fantics are still made, it was another company who purchased the name so no parts available from them. 

A good few trials specialists such as In Motion plus others in the UK + places in France and Italy seem to keep most items and post around the world.  A few bike breakers also have parts.

Attached is a Fantic 300 riders manual, Non English & a parts list...

Someone may have a English version but this should help. 

Tyres, inner tubes, oils, throttle cables, metric nuts & bolts, chains and other common items should be available from most local trials dealers in Canada as the same on many model bikes.

 

Have fun...

Here are a few pics I took last night. Thanks for all the info.

I did some research on this bike and its not what my son needs as a beginner bike. I see that you need to stand up on this bike most of the time hence trial bike.

Can someone tell me what they are worth ( ball park ). I can't find any info from here in London Ontario Canada.

Is there a trick to starting the Fantic 300? The kick starter only travels down 1 in every 5 or six kicks? It seems like there is a lot of compression.

The bike came with a key but I can't find where it goes. I am assuming that the old owner removed the ignition.
