Kelum Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Hi guys, Like I told you earlier I should change my gaskets..probably tappet O-rings etc. I have found some gasket sets here on ebay. I have some questions. in these gasket products, there are sets compatible with both 250 and 125 cc models. I think 250 engines are bigger..so buying a 250 gasket for 125 engine wouldnt cause issues? Can someone help me with this please? I badly should replace gaskets as oil leakage seems to be getting worse... Am sure at least one of you've had replaced gaskets..of your xv125.
Paulwhite Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 dont get 250 gaskets as they wont fit, the cylinder and heads are bigger so it wont line up properly.

Ok Paul, that was my guess too..but why do they keep saying in ebay the set matches to both models...thats really bad.. http://cgi.ebay.com/FULL-COMPLETE-GASKET-SET-FIT-YAMAHA-XV-125-VIRAGO-/260730586749?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item3cb4c1067d#ht_500wt_922 What do you think of this one above?
