SUMMARY
Early 1980s classic Italian 125cc twin-shock trials bike in 'barn find' condition. Appears to be mostly original and the engine does turn over with compression, however the bike will need recommissioning before use.
DESCRIPTION
- Fantic Motor began producing motorcycles in 1968 along with mini bikes and go-karts and were primarily known for enduro and trials based bikes before transitioning to dual sport and road bikes
- The FM237, a variant of their 125cc trials line, became a popular and capable machine for youth riders in the UK due to its smaller engine size conforming to 'sixteener laws'
- This early 1980s, twin-shock, FM237 is powered by a 124cc two-stroke single-cylinder
- The bike is in 'barn find' condition but appears to be in mostly original condition
- The engine does turn over with compression and we would recommend recommissioning will be required before use
- Not currently UK-registered for road use
- Offered without reserve
