I HAD A NEW FANTIC IN APPROX 1979 , IT WAS SOLD AS A 175 FROM FANTIC UK . IT HAD A SUZUKI PISTON AND IT WAS DONE BY VIC MADELY IN WALES FOR ROY CAREY AT FANTIC HORNCHURCH ( IMPORTER ) . IT WAS JUST A FEW MORE CC,s TILL THE 200 (156) CAME OUT . HOPE THIS HELPS .
I used to carry my trials bike on a trailer . the easiest way I found , was to have 2 x loops in trailer floor (providing base is good) made with good strong webbing / strap material . determine what length they need to be with suspension about half / three quarters compressed . wheel bike onto trailer , put 1 loop over footrest pull bike to opposite side - put 2nd loop over footrest .make sure straps are on pivot part of footrests , not on sharp serrated part . just a couple of secondary straps to bars or frame . if in any doubt , where loops go over footrests , use a wear sleeve or pad to stop loops getting worn . hoe this makes sense .
iv just ordered new wheel bearings(6004) for my rev3 2004.. bearings arrived and in one side of the wheel the bearing is loose on the hub ( does not need tapped in )
anyone encountered this problem before and is there a quick fix for sealing it in there.
cheers
hi , depeding on how bad the hub is , you could either use bearing fit , made by locktite or similar . or if really excessive clearance , you may have to get hub machined and fit a sleeve or find a secondhand hub/wheel . hope this helps .
