May 24, 200917 yr I've read many times that Fantic 240 Pro is the best twinshock bike ever. Do you agree or...? Best features, weaknesses?
May 24, 200917 yr No one twinshock trials bike is best for everything/everybody, but many people have a favourite.
May 24, 200917 yr I've read many times that Fantic 240 Pro is the best twinshock bike ever. Do you agree or...? You've been Brainwashed by Lee Harris. Anyone will tell you it's the Fantic 200.
May 24, 200917 yr You've been Brainwashed by Lee Harris.Anyone will tell you it's the Fantic 200. Got to agree I had both , the 200 was the best bike . Wish I still had it
May 24, 200917 yr Come on gents. FANTIC's? Great clubman bike, but how many World Championships, SSDT's, Scott's did they win? Hmmmmmm. Have another go lads.
May 24, 200917 yr vesty won on the Bultaco so thats good enough for me, but the SWM that came after maybe had the edge at the top level? Burgat at his best took some beating, then came the monoshocks. I believe that setting them up and getting them running sweet is no mean achievement though wheras a sorted 'taco is easy to do.
May 24, 200917 yr Author So what's the secret of Fantic 200? I have Montesa Cota 348, could you please compare them and tell about the most important differencies?
May 24, 200917 yr My totally biased opinion obviously - SWM 320 PROS- grips better than anything i have ridden (i have ridden many bikes) very well built, very reliable , tons of torquey usable power -but not too powerful parts still readily available CONS- a bit heavy than some , but this helps with the grip this is obviously going to get some replies!! but its my opinion! everybody has their favorite/opinion.
May 24, 200917 yr had a couple off ty yams 1 swm fantic200 and a old mont got to be the 156cc 200 fantic anyone got one im still looking there the biz
May 24, 200917 yr I can honestly say the SWM 320 was the worst bike I ever had , 8 months of hell . Total waste of money !
May 24, 200917 yr The best Twinshock models from the large scale production manufacturers are the bikes which cost the most money to buy now, which brings it back to: Honda, Fantic, and then Yam, SWM, Bultaco......But for me its the Fantic 240
May 24, 200917 yr My totally biased opinion obviously - SWM 320PROS- grips better than anything i have ridden (i have ridden many bikes) very well built, very reliable , tons of torquey usable power -but not too powerful parts still readily available CONS- a bit heavy than some , but this helps with the grip this is obviously going to get some replies!! but its my opinion! everybody has their favorite/opinion. Got to agree with you, dont remember it being to heavy, 280 was the best engine. Had to run it a bit rich to get it to grip.
May 24, 200917 yr You've been Brainwashed by Lee Harris.Anyone will tell you it's the Fantic 200. I never said the 240 was the best twinshock ever made..... the best twinshock that was never made is my 340.... in white ... in red or black Edited May 24, 200917 yr by Lee Harris
