Title: Fantic Cabellero
Post by: Oldandwornout on December 10, 2017, 09:42:06 AM

Have to say I rather like this, 450 single in a retro scrambler isn't this what everyone wants to see in the off road /adventure world, OK in a more Dakar style . £6000 is a bit steep for me but not overly priced in this market , also comes in 125 and 250cc sizes , let's hope the Italian electrics don't let it down . Sorry tried attaching you tube promo but failed miserably , check it out .
Cheers Mark

Blimey, lets hope its more reliable that the old 125 Caballero two stroke I remember from the 70s.  Fast and fragile.

Evening gents.... yes I was looking at these down at the NEC bike show a couple of weeks back, lovely looking little bikes. Although I'd have to say personally for me the CCM street tracker looked a tad nicer.

Thanks manxie for posting the picture, afraid my iPad refuses to play ball with me ! As far as old fantics go there's a few on eBay if you really want one Richard ha ha .
The ccm looks to modern for my tastes and do like the retro scrambler look although the 600cc engine would be better at hauling my 17st around (maybe a bit more).
Seems Crazy Horse at Bury st Edmunds are the dealers for them near me so might have to go and have look .
All the best Mark
