Fantic 50

[Buysomerice]

So wanted to pick your brains. Always been interested in a trials bike, but the cost keeps me away. A 1987 Fantic 50cc has came up forsale and it looks interesting. How would 50cc work out? Or getting parts? Any input welcome, this is my first stop at researching this.

I think the "Tryals Shop" used to be the importer, google them and give them a call. I used to have a 301 of the same vintage (graphics were the same) and I think they supplied my parts at the time. They were still supporting them for quite a while after they quit importing them even though they aren't listed on their website. Unless I'm confusing them with Aprilia
Either way they will give you good info on parts availability. Mine was a great bike when I had it.
I'm guessing the 50cc is for your kid? definitely not suitable for an adult.

Add says adult trials bike, 18" rear and 21" front. I dont know how it could be 50cc. Thanks for that info I'll keep digging.

A torquey 50 cc trials bike with an adult sized frame and 18''/21''wheels sounds awesome to me.Especially if you could get a plate for it.
Lifes short,buy it.
