OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Finding and Swapping Rare Finds & Donations VC125 V97, what a find!!!!!

I dont umm and ahh any more.
I just lay down the $25 (yeah bustards, the boss was there had to pay full hit) and load it up in the boot.

You boys better love me.









Shes a ripper.
I gave in, had to wash it.
Theres a few cracks in the cowl but it looks pretty good.
The starter cord was out, it went back in but the dogs arent digging.

hey if one of the others dont want it I will trade something for it, as far as I can tell the vc 160's 125's etc wernt sold out here I have only ever seen one out here.

Hell yeah Bob good work.Don't worry Joe I'm sure something will work out we are starting to get a few of them now.

I think with this and the rest of the haul, we will have enough for all 3 of us to have a COMPLETE and running V97 Joe!

Thankyou Bob, This is wonderful!

I'll pick up the Tab for this one, and we can work the rest out at this end.

When i saw that it had the green starter knob, fuel cap and flap lever, i thought thats a keeper. Sticker on the starter looks good.

Then i noticed it was a 125, even better, then i saw the air cleaner and throttle lever. Magic.
The throttle housing has split along the bottom, not sure how ya fix that. But if its little used it should be OK. The throttle cable has been pulled out at the carb, but it moves.


I bet with very little this one would be a runner. Its not perfect but with some wheels and a tidy up its near good enough to leave as is, its in pretty good shape.


Incase ya hadnt worked it out its looked like an ally fuel bowl. The model number probably gives that away.

It's amazing to see one so original, usually the controls etc. have been replaced by white ones!
