Well the big girl is officially gone, rebuilt the gpx 125 and threw it all together for the sis in law today, rides really well with the 125 in it. I almost turned down the 1250 bucks I was having that much fun on it. Gpx sounds really good through the braaap zorst, better than the 190 did!

Gpx125 is a great engine goes and sounds great. Think I have finally fixed the clutch on mine. Always fun to ride.

Aren't they just. Im a little shattered that the tb works gpx 125 has disappeared from the dhz website. Anyone no where I might be able to pick one up from in aus?

i see, so you kept the 190F ? nice work !!

have you spotted any nice rollers for it yet, or are you going to buy one new ?

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

I sold that to actually, to get close to what I paid for it back. Have 2 grand sitting here for another bike, debating whether to buy a second hand yami or honda, or wait another month and buy a lxr new. The braaap frame was just to small for me, and I figure if im buying a brand new roller I might as well have a brand new engine as well.

 

[Phil67]

Sold the engine?

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

Yeah phil, she is all gone now. I hunted througj ch50s site but couldnt find the works gpx donk any where. Where did you find it motovert24?

 

[my67xr]

that's a bit sad Stu,
what engine are you thinking about for the new bike ?

Thumpstar have the GPX125 for sale on gumtree, but the $$ are a bit high

I was debating a brand new 190 lxr if I can gt one that can take big wheel combo, or if I can find one, I recon the works/tb gpx 125 would be nice in a lxr, and be a little different. Dhz still have the stock gpx for sale but not the tb bersion they used to have.

 

[my67xr]

ok,
i guess TB would still sell them though ? they might need to be built as they sell them now?

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

Well dhz informed me they are no longer making the head to duit the gpx so no works gpx for me.

 

[gottagetacheaperhobby]

this is how she finished up, need to put a larger back sprocket on her as its still running the 36 rear, even with a 14 front it struggles to pull through 3rd and 4th
