so what parts from a 175 would fit on a 125. since i found someone on here with parts i need to know what 175 parts will bolt on the 125. will the axle's swap out?? what all parts will swap most of them look exactly the same.

anyone with 175 parts contact me. thanks

the 80/81 125 if different from the 82-85 125. alot of chassis stuff from the late 125 was the same as the 175. gearing was different, pipe was different, top end and intake was different. those 175 forks will go on the 125 along with the body panels. you'll find alot of info calling most everything a bolt on but its a load of crap. there are several subtle differences in the 2. most can easily be overcome but there is a huge difference between BOLT ON and having to mod a bunch of pieces slightly.
