looney tunes Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 ok ladles and Jelly spoons, I have a 97 P reg XVS 650 and lots of the plastic chrome is cracked, pitted or nasty, is the 97 bike specific? or will the chrome cover panels from a newer model fit? thanks Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Newer models *should* fit... Never heard anyone having problems otherwise. I know someone round our way, who's breaking a '99 to do up an '00 Draggie. Likely he'll have chromey bits in reasonable (ie used, but good). Not sure when they'll be available, but likely fairly soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gizmo666 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 you'll find on most searchs for xvs parts the 97 is never mentioned the years seem to start from 98 onwards not to worry this was only because in 98 the classic came out and thay had to differentiate between the both classic and custom the parts for a 98 custom will fit a 97 custom as there is no difference whatsoever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One N Only Kev Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I've just rebuilt a 97 650 and i can tell you that as far as differences go the wiring harness is different from the 98 onwards witch caused me a lot of hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
