Welcome
to FanticTrials.info... we aim to become a one stop shop for
information on the Fantic Motor Trials models from the Twinshock
era. We have Fantic history, image gallery, workshop tips
and tricks and sales/wanted pages up and running.....
A bit about the site founder, Pete Culliford.
Pete
has ridden Fantic Trial bikes since the age of ten, his first Fantic
being a Silver Framed 1978 Trial 125 model, Following on from
this a 1983 Trial 200 with moulded seat and 240 front end set
up, In 1984 he switched to a Trial 240 and stayed on this machine
for a full season until switching to a Trial 301 when it all
went monoshock! He began restoring Fantic Twinshock Trials models in
1988 when both bikes and parts were still in very good supply.
Since this time he has restored some twenty Fantics!...

Information wanted.....
Hans Jørn Beck contacted us to see if we could get any further
information on the machine pictured, this was taken in 1990
with a later owner. Information we know is...
Factorybike/preproduction
of the Fantic. It was handed over to one of the best Danish
drivers at the time, Peter Falk, In Bergamo maybe more than
6 months before the 200 was released to the public.
The bike
Is quite special. It looks like the old 125. But with the
following differencies. Red frame. Same fork as 125 but
with a thicker axle. And bigger front hub. Same tank as later
200. Same gearbox as 125. But 156 cc. Cylinder. Handbuilt
Aluminium Ignition cover.
If anyone can shed further light on the bike please contact
