November 27, 200916 yr Looking good! Loving the yellow frame, don't go scratching it with them straps now! What forks have you used, Fantic? Why did you choose these over Yam Mono forks? Did you get new rims? Keep us updated. Edited November 27, 200916 yr by Hughesy
November 28, 200916 yr Author The forks are Marzocchi off a late Beta twinshock, at the time it was easier to get them than the Yamaha mono forks and also Ive heard about issues with mono front hubs. The front wheel is off a Fantic 240, rear is TY both are around same age as the bike and have been polished and respoked with stainless spokes Edited November 28, 200916 yr by majesty320
November 29, 200916 yr Looks nice but i would prefer Yamaha Hubs and brakes,better in the water. Chrs:Mike
December 13, 200916 yr Author I thought of putting Yam mono forks and hubs on it but have been told the Yam brake plates are prone to cracking, plus at the time I would have to of bought a full bike to get the front end as there were no parts available. It seems a shame to brake a full bike.
