    Afternoon all. Does anyone know if the rear fender from an xvs950 will fit on my xvs1300a. Just wondered if anyone has swapped them over. Don't particularly fancy paying silly money for an aftermarket fender. Cheers .

    Was speaking about this a while ago in the mods section Just to help the other members understand the lingo and commonly used phrases a little better, so lets get posting! Just to start: Peeps - Group of people or simians Grouched - Your bike is broken and you are upset about it Venting the marinade - Unzipping your waterproofs and unleashing that fart you let out about half an hour ago

Only 1 cable attached and both are falling apart. 1) Should the valve move very freely? 2) When i pull the cables down to the exup they continue to come is tis correct? 3) Also does any body know where i can but some cables from? Cheers guys morepower

    Hey guys. having problems with my 2003 XVS 125. It will go into 1st gear but not any other gear, when i managed to get it into 2nd gear and back into neutral the engine will not start now. The gear problem came about because the gear pedal was hit from the front. Does any body have any idea what could be done to fix this issue-i.e if there is a linkage in the gearbox of some thing that would require replacing? cheers
