pete_scorpa3 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 I can remember having a test ride on one way bike in, 1989 (or so), it felt heavy and ungainly then, so imagine how big it will seem compared to modern stuff now. It was a new bike so I can't comment on the reliablility side of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t-shock 250 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 As above, a hefty lump, with poor build quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russelld Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 I had one around 1992, and loved it but to be honest didnt have it for that long as it was stolen, I just remember being able to wheelie it for fun and was really impressed with the hydraulic clutch at that time, I bought one cheap not so long ago but sold it to Bill Pye as the cost of the re-build was not worthwhile (and trust me I dont like breaking up Fantics you should see the 300 ive just bought and am about to throw lots of cash at) there was a really nice one just sold on Ebay for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
