Paulwhite Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 ooooo ....thats gonna look sweet makes me wish i bought chrome handle bars , think you might have some trouble getting the filter setup to work properly though....the xvs engine is very temperamental! even if its a slight fraction out on the air fuel mix it will run rough as foooook. but yeah looking good m8 nice to see another (proper)custom xvs 125!

clarke Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I had my XVS125 until June last year - never seen another XVS125 in Leeds... at least with you're mods you'll be easy to spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noise Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Well too be truthful mate i cant see fuck all in these pics as they are far too small lol i mean i dont wear glasses but after a bash on the old whiskey my eyes are still trying to look at the bike in any great detail lol. Post up bigger pics using photobucket and im sure that will help in determining if those forks will look good or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
