This may be of use to you..... http://john.rushworth.com/Pics/TLR250R-G/index.htm

The off idle cough they are famous for is annoying, has anyone tried the oversize front pipe that supposed to eliminate it?? or a different carb ??

Get it spent..... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290569983872&fromMakeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:en#ht_18139wt_932

It was my 1st proper ride on the Fantic as the 1st time out I lost the sparks. I need to do a few tweaks but nothing too serious. Slow throttle, big pegs etc. I was making some silly mistakes in the beginning but got used to it.(first trial on a 2t)

Nice job, I am trying one at the moment. What did you do re the footpeg position, are they lowered or just welded new brackets for the big pegs. I have still got the std pegs and can't decide whether they want lowering, I do need big pegs though. Thanks.....

New type coil fitted tonight. Started 2nd kick runs like a watch. Thanks.

Hi Jenny.. A later tubeless rim you should be able to get from these people... http://www.mxbits.com/acatalog/Excel_Motocross_Wheel_Rims.html Or if you want a wheel building then these may be worth a call.... http://www.central-wheel.co.uk/smpro_mx/smpro_mx.html EDIT; Just visited your website and realised you are handy with the spanners

Look at his other items.....

Has anyone changed fork seals on the 125 Scorpa? it is the TYS with cable clutch,is it straight forward to do, can I just pull the bottoms off in situ without removing the whole leg from the yokes ?? Thanks. I believe they are different forks to the hyd clutch bikes.

All ohms readings are good. I will try a new h t coil from Steve Goode, there's a upgraded one for the Fantics apparently.

Did this ever get sorted?? I have a similar problem. Where are the Fanic lads when you need them???

I have obtained another coil to try off a 125 fantic that is currently stripped, I don't know if it is a good one though. It is slightly different to the coil on my 200, it is a Dansi with 3 screw terminals. I don't have the 3 screw terminals on my coil it has 3 wires but is sealed on the end (metal coil, no name on it)?? I wired it black/earth and then tried the green and reds either way round as I don't know the correct way. On the 2 terminals there are a "c" and I think a "G". ??? No spark either way round. Not got a multi meter yet to try??

I am trying a Fantic 200 t/s out . I lost the sparks today, then it fired and then stopped again a couple of times. I disconnected the kill button and checked connectors. Now there is no spark. Electrics are not my strong point. I was wondering if there is anything on the 200 twin shock that plays up?? It was a pig to start at one point and then got worse. Thanks. PS Thanks to Jon V8 off here for towing me back to the car park today...

Carole Nash I believe. They give you a certain time to sort the registration out.

How do you extend the clutch arm with the link?? Also some say move the pegs and some say not?? Do you think it makes much difference ??

Any up dates on this?? how are you getting on with it?? I bought one today, seems bog std. Not sure whether the pegs need moving yet,they want changing for hebos though, some say leave them others say move them?? I will try higher bars first as I have low bars, then see how I get on ?? Anything else ??

As Pete said, it won't happen. If there is concrete evidence with no shadow of a doubt like the Brands incident they may get involved. If you see some idiot thrashing a stolen bike round a sink estate and tip off the Bill then they may send some one round in a week or two if pushed, in the mean time said bike has been blown up burnt and is now in the river...... Don't hold your breath

A load of dodgy bikes and engines were recently found at a Brands Hatch road race meeting, easier to trace as they came from bikes once reg'd on the road. Trials not as easy as many are never reg'd. Mind you a helicopter and around 50 coppers turned up at Brands after a lengthy investigation, I would be surprised if you would find 1 bike at 50 trials, in the main people who nick trials bikes are not trials riders they are joy riders wanting a trials bike or chancers trying to make a quick few quid. Probably too much admin for the acu to be involved unless of course there is a sudden surge in thefts maybe ??
