November 24, 200520 yr I think it looks great! and hopefully 50cc is just the start of a fantic comeback... cheers Glenn <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If you translate the Todotrial website it says that Fantic are planning a Suzuki engined 300cc 4stroke trial bike for 2008!

December 15, 200520 yr Make them yourself, 30mm long, 20mm ID, 26mm OD-hope the shaft is not knackered. If you want needle rollers the number is HK 2016 2RS lee
December 20, 200520 yr Many thanks kind sir! Have you made some?. Just curious, as a i don't have a lathe. Anyone with a lathe (and the skill to use it) want to make a few bucks!
December 21, 200520 yr Anyone with a lathe (and the skill to use it) want to make a few bucks! I know a man who can - well I could make them but I know a man who can make better ones! (contact me off line Monty !)
