125's Enough! Posted July 1, 2017 Posted July 1, 2017 Greetings from Poland. I wrote last year about how I can't get a Cat. A driving licence here on account of too great a difference in acuity of vision between eyes (100% in right, 30% in left with glasses on), so I'm stuck with Cat. B, which allows you to drive cars and motorbikes up to 125cc / 15 BHP. So to get my dream bike, I had my Drag Star XVS 125 customised by Unikat 1of1.pl Motorworks down in Wroclaw. The aim was to capture the spirit of the post-war Indian Road Chief. New mudguards (with Indian warbonnet running light in front), handlebars, saddle; smaller, fatter front wheel, fishtail exhaust. Original mechanicals unchanged, though final drive amended to give lower gear ratio/revs at cruising speed. Sounds as good as it looks (provided not revved too hard). 2
slice Posted July 1, 2017 Posted July 1, 2017 A very pretty bike, you must be well pleased with it, lot's of work and money you have spent on it I bet. Welcome back.
125's Enough! Posted August 13, 2017 Author Posted August 13, 2017 Lighter than the original, thanks to glassfibre mudguards and two-into-one exhaust. Cannot get more than 90km/h (56mph) out of it though... but that's not the point :-)
