Anybody understand French better than me?
Looks like a 300cc enduro motor based on the YZ 250. Electric start, electric power valve and throttle body injection to be used in Fantic GP bikes.
This would make a nice upgrade to the x bikes

Only times I have got a refund after the delivery estimate had passed was if the tracking showed an issue or had clearly not moved for a long time.

That would make a great candidate for a restomod project.

Congrats. And watch out, the emissions can be pretty bad at times.

Pretty sure I read on a thread somewhere that a 06 / 07 fan was installed.

Agreed, they used to be great until recently. Previously I could call and they would answer right away. On my last order earlier this year they did the delay thing and when I tried to call I got a message that the lines were closed for the day at 9am due to volume of calls already in line. Thats a huge red flag to me.
I emailed to cancel the order and it miraculously shipped the next day.
We may see them going the same way as Bikebandit in the future.

Last two orders I placed were from CMS in Holland. No issues so far.

Not sure if you will find any 64.25mm cast pistons so you may need to run Wossner or Wiseco forged pistons.

These crankshafts seem to have good reviews from the banshee guys. .  :thumbs:

I dont know where you got that from. Every Banshee group or site I have ever been on have all agreed that you need to stay as far away from anything Vitos as possible.

Places like Westcoast ATV or Driveline performance will sell you quality cranks with Koyo 8 ball bearings
