edholland Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Just picked up a 1979 Fantic 125 and found some partslists and info on French sites. The documentation said it needs 1.3 liter of oil for the engine is that correct and which oil is best ? TIA, Ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edholland Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Thanks Lee ! If i'm correct you installed the forks from a Section on your twinshok Fantic. Would they work on a 125 model ? i have a complete Section that i dont use anymore and would like to the same while restoring the original forks.

lee harris Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) The section forks can be made to fit but it is quite a bit of work. Machining the brake plate for a bigger axle means it cannot be used with the old smaller axle once your forks are rewoked. PM me , i have an idea! lee Edited January 28, 2009 by Lee Harris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edholland Posted January 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 I was thinking about swapping the complete front with diskbrake and all, not to adapt the Mazzochi forks for using the drumbrake-wheel like you did. Pm'd you my phonenumber anyway Cheers, Ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
