Well I hope someone acquires all their NOS parts !!!

Does anybody out there know what happened to them ? Their web presence is completely gone and they used to list a bunch of off beat / rare Fantic parts ... Any info helpful . Glenn

Well I bought the bike to show to a mucho better guy sat. morning ... Aluminum shaping master ... Kinda decided I'm gonna attach the gas cap to the stock tank , eliminate all the plastic , and he will build a sexy aluminum one peice shroud/cover for the tank and seat panel ... Stock thumbscrew at front and stock Dzus fastener at the seat end ... Now it's just time and $$$ (but less $$$) My first guy is really good , but seems to lack the vision of the 2nd ... And I know , it's silly to do all this , but I want a special bike !

Well my yard has turned into a swamp ... even had a alligator snapping turtle basking in my driveway the other day ... Fastest turtle I ever saw ! But we've been weird too , 80's one day , 40 the next ... and always raining

Thanks So Much ! enrico !!! Thats the one , And gasserguy , That link is way cool too ! never saw that one before . Thanks again to both of you . Glenn

Hey Folks , A while back there was a post that someone gave a reply to with a link to a shop in the UK that had square tubing swing arms for Fantic 240's and some retro Fantic jerseys too ... I want one of the Jerseys and have been searching all morning . I don't remember what the initial post was about , but I looked at the link and was impressed . Any help greatly appreciated !!! Glenn

Bad needle(float)valve ?

Lineaway .... Wow !!! Thanks SO MUCH !!! You are going to R.I. aren't you ? I owe you a good dinner along with the pint !!!! And for all you fellow Fantic Freaks , Here is a photo of the gas cap I just received today for the section aluminum tank project . If you want some things done 1st class , sometimes you've got to add the inspiration , The chap doing it for me has made up with 3 different top panels so far , all with funky 4rt type caps . Not what I'm after for a one of a kind bike .He's one of the best fab/metal men I've ever met , but so far the propositions have just looked awkward to me . The photo's show the flywheel puller to give a idea of the size of the cap for the next attempt .... wish me luck , this is getting expensive .... Now to do a tank based on my gas cap ... But my C@sta +1 will be SWEET !

So are you trying to beat "kenny the rooster " for replies with this one ??? Glenn

Pretty sure that is a 240 pro motor ...

I'll have to get you a pint or two ...

A manual no Idea ... But this may help a little . http://www.trialscentral.com/forums/topic/31217-fantic-tx-250-help/ Good luck , worth all the effort . Glenn

+1 , and the Number pad below the carb will go along way in ID ....

I asked RYP last weekend and he has no news yet , But a bunch of the old 803's in stock. The section needs rubber before I actually start using it . May just try a set of X-lites for our local mud .... Glenn

It's been a few years , but , I had a blast in a Mclaren at VIR . I got to spend about a hour seeing what I , it could do .... Only scared meself a couple of times . Put a clutch in a lambo a few years ago , didn't like that as much . HAVE FUN !!!! Glenn

Sent you the info by normal e-mail ... Glenn

Well I just went out to the shop and pulled the kickstarter and flywheel cover off the section ... Without taking off the crank nut , it's definitely bigger than my 240 puller . , 32mm eyeballs about right . I forgot how big the bolt on weights on my section are too ! So Bob , send me a pm with some payment details for paypal ....or you should still have my e-mail address ? Thanks , Glenn

Hi Folks , Does anybody know if the puller I have for my 240 pro is the same size for my section ? Or what size my section needs ? Or should I just go out there and start taking the section apart ? Thanks , Glenn

You'd have to know Murray , although I haven't seen him out and about for a couple of years now .... The Surveying biz must be good ... Glenn

If he's close , go look at them and try them on . I personally like gaerne's the best , with novagars a close second . But everybody is different ... Glenn

And I just have to add , Ryan is so much more fun in person ... His schools are the best ...

OK , So now when your back tire hits the ground , go about 3 feet forward then flick a 180 and go back over the log ... And tape that at normal speed .... Glenn

When I was a kid in New England , (1970's !) The NETRA moved you up automatically , I don't remember what the conditions were , but there was no sandbagging allowed .... Boy I wish sometimes I had made better life defining decisions .... Glenn

Hi John ; There is a slew of folks on here from your neck of the woods , You probably know some of them ... Good to have you here . Glenn

Or maybe Bou has a little 'tigger' in him , (from winnie the pooh ) and just smiles and bounces thru life ... 'cause thats what tiggers do best ! But if Honda has found a way to store and release energy in suspension .....???? Glenn
