February 9, 201214 yr About 20 years ago I used to have a Fantic 200 which I used for green laning and generally mucking about I have a hankering to buy another trials bike, again just or mucking about on. Someone pointed me to a Fantic 200 1980, what sort of price should I pay for one in good nick?

February 9, 201214 yr You might be better looking for an air cooled mono shock if its only for playing on, a good one will be a lot cheaper than a good Fantic twin shock.
February 10, 201214 yr something 'odd' here if you look closely.. i believe the photos show two bikes...
February 10, 201214 yr something 'odd' here if you look closely.. i believe the photos show two bikes... Think you might be right. I love spot the difference puzzles I get on me cornflake packets; First clue, look at the front light and front mudguard brace! Do I win anything?
February 11, 201214 yr Maybe the seller will give you the 240 he slipped a front of in ? Also the rear end shot is of a pro (right hand chain)
February 12, 201214 yr Also the rear end shot is of a pro (right hand chain) Blast you guys are good ..... Eagle Eyes !
February 12, 201214 yr The "trial" stickers on the left side are different too... And the bash guard is black in one pic and silver in another...
February 13, 201214 yr Hi all Your deffinately right the other pictures are of a 240 pro. I know this because I bought the 240 off him just before Xmas and recognise the ebay id and the pictures, looks like he couldnt be a***d taking anymore pictures. He seamed a decent guy though and quite knowledgable in his defence. Dont understand it myself as it just puts doubt in a potential buyers mind.
February 13, 201214 yr bike pulled before the end.. seller recently did this with another bike as well i think.. saves ebat fees i suppose but is frustrating if you were waiting to bid high at the end of an auction..
