Description

A well used old (probably 1986) trials bike being sold as a non-runner (although I had it running today until it stopped - that may just be the plug oiled up. but may be something else - given time I will check it out).  Video of bike running here:http://www. roscow. net/ebay/fantic. movI've owned it for about 20 years. bought for my son to learn to ride on.  Basically all there. but clutch cable just broke on me (typical). front brake pads probably need replacing as not as sharp stoppers as they used to be. sprockets quite worn. front wheel bearings grumbling and petrol tap oozing a bit.  Plastics obviously showing their age and typical trials/play use.  I have replaced the main bearings and crank seals and overhauled the rear suspension.  It has a homemade air filter.  Tyres are ok. chassis ok. forks ok.  Side stand could use a new spring as it flops around a bit.  A previous owner has painted the bike white and black. so I don't know the original colour.  The engine is an FM350. 156cc. and the chassis is marked as a 237.  I've also seen this referred to as a 125 Professional. but I find it hard to nail down Fantic's model range. so my claim to it being a model 201 may be incorrect.  Please bear that in mind and do check from the photos if it is what you want.  I will answer any questions to help you identify correctly. but won't accept a return if the model is incorrectly identified by you or me. Note some pictures may show no throttle control. but they were taken while I was still sorting it out.  It now has a throttle.  But a broken clutch cable.  I will attempt to get a new one before sale. but that is not guaranteed. Sorry. I'm not able to deliver this. so it will have to be picked up from Ramsgate. Kent.
