March 2, 201114 yr 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!
March 3, 201114 yr Looking good! Makes me wish I still had my 125 to start chopping. When did you get the bike / start you're mods?

March 3, 201114 yr 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.

March 4, 201114 yr Don't really know any breakers, however these came up on google which could be worth a look? (Wyke, near Bradford) - have passed these on a train a few times. and G.N.D. Motorcycle Breakers, Unit 1, Alkincote Street, Keighley, West Yorkshire, BD21 5JT, Tel: 01535 690620 Good luck

November 14, 201113 yr 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.
