Fit and finish superb ... skinnier and sexier than stock ... great service too ... just make sure all your mounting rubber bits are still pliable . Glenn

Maybe the seller will give you the 240 he slipped a front of in ?

I must be old school... There are some gaskets I use grease on ,never sealant ... Glenn (but if your going to use a rubber type sealer , I believe Toyota 's Black FIPG (form in place gasket) is unmatched in most situations ...)

Pete ; is just my eyes or did wiggy and the next chap both 5 the section for stopping in the turn ? or did I miss something there ....? Glenn

Pick a line and ride it ! Plan where your back wheel is going to be , most times you can put your front wherever you need to one way or another , as Rosey said your back wheel gets you thru the section ! And your legs are you best suspension period .! Learn to let the bike work underneath you , while your head and shoulders stay on line ... And the SMOOTHEST rider I ever saw , Don Sweet of New England Trials Riders Fame ! Was my hero when I started out in the 70's ...! Glenn

2nd on that , Small camelback is the only way to go !

Beautiful rooster you've got there . Glenn

You may want to check the oil level in the gearbox ... Maybe time for main seals after sitting so long . And what fuel/oil ratio are you running ? I run a K&N air filter in mine ,But the owners manual (in italian ) does mention Bel Ray Mc6 in the air filter service section and I know that is air filter oil ! Glenn

Hate to drag up a old thread ... But how are the maxtons working and what do we think about rock shocks ? I may be in the market for some new suspenders soon !!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks, Glenn

Cope , you should fly up here (there is a small airport about a 1/2 mile from my house)and then we can ride up to NC. and you can see one of our clubs members exp. plane that looks like the one above ... He says he can take off and land in his yard !(where we are having our R.Y. school again !)Come on up and play on my Fantic ... I miss my '58 Aircoupe (ercoupe) Glenn

Like said above , Don't rule the bike out , May be cheap access to the most fun on two wheels .... Glenn

Hey Keith ; Why don't you post a photo of your ugly bike .... :banana2: :banana2:

Doug ; Keith has ridden the trusty Fantic in question ... I believe he's working on his painstakenly restored mont ... which one I'm not sure ! Glenn

Classic

There is also a brand called Royal Purple ... which is You quessed it ! PURPLE !!!!

How can you call yourself dabbinbob when your feet never leave the pegs ???? Unless the earth changes magnetic poles ??? See ya soon ;ITSA ROCKS !!! Glenn

And where is BEaTABeta in all this ? Glenn

Bit my tongue before I posted my first thought .........

I got one here a few years ago ...! http://www.bmz.fr/boutique/ Good luck Glenn

If you get a chance , hook up with EXVET (Tim), You couldn't ask for a better mentor at this game ... Seriously great guy and better rider ! Glenn

:banana2:

Hi ; Being in Knoxville check out http://www.stratrials.com/ there are members in your neighborhood and they have classifieds on their site too. you maybe able to find a Yamaha TY or a Honda TL / Reflex for cheap if you just want to play in your yard . If you've got time Sunday , take a drive to Shelby NC and meet some MTR folks . We are having a fun ride tomorrow and a Ryan Young Trials school at the same location in March ...Details can be found here http://metrolinatrials.com/ Great people and a guaranteed good time !!! I'll be the grumpy old guy on a Fantic 240 pro and my youngest son may be on my Fantic trials bicycle ... But be forewarned ; Trials is ADDICTIVE !!! and it will make you a better rider in all discipline's on two wheels . In trials your hardest competition is yourself ... Glenn

There is a metal insert in the airbox , so just remove the broken bolt carefully . I've mounted mine with Thin rubber spacers so the old box can wiggle just a bit , And if you want to a K&N air filter PN.E-3211 will fit the stock air box with some self adhesive rubber weatherstrip on the edges Quite comfortably ... Breathes alot better .!!! Glenn

I spent most of yesterday morning listening to her on you tube... Glenn
