1977 Fantic Caballero TX290 SrI, 49cc. Registration number TSO 481R. Frame number 0001292. Engine number, unknown.
Sold with the V5C and history folder.
The Caballero was first imported into the UK during 1974 and came in both four and six speed versions making them very desirable. From the outset rumours were abound of the Caballeros top speed and youngsters the country over either wanted one or lived in fear of their mates getting one instead of them. They were fast, the big put off back then was the price, listed in 1976 at £499. 00 over twice the price of both the Yamaha FSIE and the Suzuki AP50, £230 and £225 respectively, putting the exotic Italian machine well out of reach of all but the wealthiest kids.
This example was imported in 2016 and comes with all of the correct paperwork which enabled our vendor to register it in the UK, dating certificate, NOVA, and photographs.
Sold with the V5C and history folder.
