    I was wondering if anyone knows of any good (cheapish) sites where I can pick up some aftermarket parts for my XVS125. Ive been scouring ebay but can only find a selct few (usually the same constantly). Im also feeling good, 2 weeks ago I would of needed to take it in to a garage to sort anything out that perhaps was amiss but this weekend I attached new brake pads on the front and tightened up the chain but still cant find the resevoir for the chain lube lol.

  16. Hello. I live in Tucson, Arizona and am thinking of buying a 86 Yamaha fj1200 from someone who has had it for a year. He is asking for $1500 firm but I see some issues.

That's easy... There is more like... A front fork is leaking. I think that is not hard for me to fix. There is something that worries me. It can get over a 100deg here. Does anyone run a big oil cooled bike like this in the hot summer? My last bike was a Honda VF700F (liquid cooled). He says he has to leave t…
