Fantic Motor is a relatively young Italian manufacturer that began producing bikes in 1968. The company has always used motorsport to promote its products, especially in off-road events, and in the 2023 season, Fantic Motor are competing in the Moto2 World Championship as the main sponsor of the Valentino Rossi's VR46 Racing Team with its two riders, Celestino Vietti and Borja Gómez. One of its more popular models in the 1970s was the Fantic T.I., which quickly gained popularity with its Italian styling peaky Minarelli 49cc engine, stories of the T.I. reaching 70 mph were perhaps an exaggeration but over 50-55 mph could be achieved in the right conditions.
This 1972 50cc TX120, presenting in an excellent and authentic condition, has spent most of its life in Italy and has enjoyed a full restoration by Giovanni of Venice. Hardly run since the restoration, it still needs a good running-in and is UK registered and supplied with a current V5C.
