[@kevindk1234]

[@hishaamiqbal4067]

Hi, could you send the link to the kit dragbar,fender etc ?

[@hishaamiqbal8547]

wheres the handle bar from

[@DARRBEV]

Man, That is EXACTLY what I been looking for, I ain't got the necessary at the mo but if you can do THAT in one summer, your a genius. Please keep posting your builds.

[@JorrisvdBerg]

Great conversion! it sounds epic!

[@robertcar1000]

Holy crap what an absolutely gorgeous bike!! I am jealous

[@nakimonamakua7297]

Great looking bike brah! Nailed it!!

[@ctourmentin]

Awesome looking bike mate! Proper motor!

[@DARRBEV]

absolutely beautiful

[@laurenz6]

Amazing built.

[@michaelzampetakis5703]

Work of art

[@kaikruner6971]

Omg looks and sound awesome for a 125.. wish i had one

[@TWEEKXXROCK]

the bike sounds great.

[@marvinkock5205]

Sehr geil!

[@Bibabatzi]

Hi Jamie, I cut the upper original baffle and installed universal slip-ons on both pipes (the lower pipe is a slip-on in original anyway)...but it was a bit tricky to get the slip-on fixed because you need to lower the radius of it. I did this with three sleeves (compressed with some exhaust paste) on each slip-on as you can see in my building thread. A clamp on each pipe fixes the whole thing. Hope it helps! greets

[@MrHazzzar]

nicely done mate

[@Lee78072]

Einfach nur Geil! Dein Bike ist der Beweiß das 125ger absolut geil aussehen können!

[@altum1020]

This guy clearly means business... quality job man!

[@zrpicorelli]

Nice ride! I wish we had those 125 here in Brazil :(

[@SonOfTheRightHand29]

that bike is AWESOME

[@nordmann1]

nice job dude!

[@theBolourRED]

Beste 125er die ich je gehört und gesehen habe!

[@franciscogoncalves2972]

Lindíssima

[@agentry880]

Very Nice!

[@Bibabatzi]

Hi, thank you very much. Well, the tyre sits very closely to the swing arm, so you have to watch out there... and I modified the attachment of the brake anchor brace in order to make room for the tyre. Cheers, good luck!

[@TheKySharpshooter]

I love it!

[@lucky6z]

thank you for the reply, you have done an awesome job. Unfortunately I do not have the means to do everything myself, I am looking for after-market parts such as fenders and lights and seat in order to start the conversion. However, Bibabatzi I am contemplating whether a 125cc is worth the conversion. I will definitely detail my progress if I start my conversion and hopefully it will looks somewhat as close to yours lol. thanks again for the reply.

[@04passenger]

well done my friend, well done.

[@paladinxx5644]

Schönes Ding

[@dieterwerner6307]

Great Sound. I want to be my Sound of my 650 Dragstar. in near future

[@darrenquinland384]

great looking bike ,one of the best looking 125 bobbers ive seen where did you buy your indicators from

[@Zogger-Rogger]

Awesome!

[@Thezubzist]

badass!

[@04passenger]

ty for the reply.

[@ferrazbrother]

live to ride - ride to live!!!

[@GERFinnLP]

Solche herrliche Musik .. köstlich! 1:47

[@xrage_ofdutyx2524]

Von tüv zugelassen das bremslicht und die Blinker? und was hat dich der umbau so umgefähr gekostet, und wie lang hast du gebraucht? richtig gut geworden respekt:)

[@mrAbinashrai]

i also has yahama xvs 125 dragstar. i am thinking to modify and your is so cool.

[@oliverspragg7312]

Dude this is such a sick bike i should be doing this soon how much would it cost and what parts did you use

[@arcadiuscichecki3963]

beautiful

[@Andrecalhegas]

Hey man great job!!!! I see in a forum the process of your conversion, give me a link to see what you doing on bike! Cheers

[@ramsnation6683]

Awesome bike. How much did you spend on the trasformation and where did you buy the stop led?

[@RUMstudios]

Right i now understand what i am doing, thank you for all the help. One last question, from the higher exhaust pipe there is a small pipe that leads into the lower exhaust, what did you do with this pipe? do i just cut it off and then seal the hole?

[@bensmith-wz7vm]

man great bike!! did you have to lower the back suspension and front fork?

[@RyanConPC]

awesome bobber! Can you tell me the make of the exhaust and where you got them from please?!?

[@gamino75]

superbe

[@Bibabatzi]

I actually just put a spacer between the brake anchor brace and the drum brake, it's not that hard. Yes, 140/90 might fit without mods, but of course I can't tell you that for sure...

[@Bibabatzi]

I painted many parts, for example the rims, many covers, forks... but the main parts (fuel tank, side covers, fenders) are wrapped with black car foil!

[@axelakaHITMAN]

And this is 125cc?! How did you make it sound so good? D:

[@connordonovan4899]

Where are these custom exhausts from/ what are they called?? Really smart bike by the way

[@sgentet]

Very Nice Bike indeed. I just found a XVS 125 2000' with 7'000 km for the price of 800 EUR I do not like the look of the original bike but I love what you have done with your bike. I hope you don't mind if I somehow replicate your concept. Thanks for the inspiration ...

[@idominsalva1]

Thank you for the fast response :) Very nice job on the motorbike! One more question :) How much did the exaust cost?

[@PaladinMika]

Jesus christ this is incredible

[@EverybodylovesValdo]

Hi ! Very very nice looking Dragstar !!! Did you do eny modifications with the rear tyre ? Or did it fit without mods ? :) I´m buying XVS Dragstar 125 also and i wanted to build it a bobber style, yours is awesome ! Keep on rocking!

[@weidner80]

Mensch da hat sich aber einer Mühe gegeben! Sieht echt bombe aus. Ich fahr normalerweise ne Streetfighter. Hab von der auch videos hier! Aber ich wollt mir jetz auch ne 125 aufbauen. Wie sah es denn bei dir aus mit dem cut off vom Heck? Hast du ne Strebe zum verstärken drin oder gings so durch den tüv? Nochmal Kompliment! *sabber...* :)

[@tangke83]

Awesome sound for a 125. What pipes are those? Did you remove the baffles?

[@SDrizzy]

absoloute beauty mate

[@MrRustyBob]

Nice.

[@The.Sky.Driver]

[heavy breathing]

[@Bibabatzi]

hi, it's this one: CM1 FRONT 3.00 -18 47P tl but I use it with tube and originally it has no white walls!

[@ghost666HAZE]

Hey man, here did you get that awesome back fender from? Awesome job on the bike! :D

[@RUMstudios]

Hi, Thanks that was very helpful. Could you give me some more details about how you clamped it? i don't understand how just clamping the slip-on to the pipes is secure. What clamp did you use?

[@jonaspa186]

Wundervolles Bike hast du da! Ist der Auspuff so zugelassen? :D Eigenbau, oder?

[@123gingerguy]

Err... Well in that case, what did you do to the exhausts an tires from stock? And how'd you mount the mudguard to the swingarm? And lastly... Those grips, where can I find some I those? Preferably in red. It's a kick ass bike man, can't wait to start my own, and use yours as a bit of an example to go by haha.

[@tomaszchyzewski1925]

Całe szczęście że zakleiłeś tablicę bo by się wydało to przez co chciałeś to ukryć :-D

[@asyto]

Thanks ! :)

[@fattyballaty3424]

What a beautiful 125! (I think I'd get rid of the big "Yamaha" badge, on the side casing) Lovely!

[@HenningPiefke]

awesome

[@Man777Alive]

Neat!

[@kanneebannee]

This thing is brutal.

[@guillermodelasherasmartin40]

Hi, did you have to cut the subframe? Beautiful!

[@tibortatrai2318]

How much did this cost to build?Awesome....planing to make one too.

[@SemplicementeRIC]

hi, wich exhaust do you have on your bike? is beautifull ;)

[@Spirrit1000]

Hey Bibabatzi, love the bike ! was wondering about one thing, your forum.. cant find the files :P any chances there is any more of it ? :P

[@Ironchild93]

Good job men ! Can you tell me your tires size ?

[@azzwhupin]

how tall u are? great bike i like it

[@Bibabatzi]

Hi, thank you very much. Well, the front fender is from a Yamaha XV 125 Virago (but a little bit modified) and the rear fender is from ebay for universal use, so I had to modify this one, too. The link is right, these are the pipes i used. I guess you are going to build a bobber, too? If you want to, you can share your build, because I don't think I am the only one who's interested ;) greets

[@lucky6z]

Great bike man, it looks awesome. I am looking to do something like you, is there anyway u could let me know what i am getting my self into, how much time and money will i need and did u do everything yourself? is there anyway you could give me a brief step by step to turn a dragstar into a bobber. a reply would be great.. thanks

[@thefreedomguyuk]

You were splashing a lot of dosh on that, so why that crappy saddle ? Square indicators ? Otherwise cool enough.

[@subnetor]

+Bibabatzi , can you tell me how much money did you spend on this bike, wich exhaust do you have on and what mufflers do you use? I'm thinking to make one bobber to. Thanks for replying. P.s cool bike ;)

[@janeeyre7901]

Hallo! Wollte mal fragen, ob der 150er Reifen problemlos passte, oder ob an der Schwinge oder dem Bremsgestaenge etwas geaendert werden musste?!

[@juliansgr]

Nice Bike! Can you send me a list with the parts you have upgraded or modded?

[@Tamlin73]

Wow...that,s cool :) Im thinking about getting a 125cc this summer, i dont need something bigger. But i like the bike to be spesial, like yours.... how much did it cost u ? Best regards from Norway

[@raccoonracer]

Hi habe mir jetzt mehrere 125er Bobber im Netz angeschaut und auch deine Fortschritte im 125er Forum verfolgt. Aber du hast alles richtig gemacht, genau mein Geschmack!!! RESPEKT!!! Mich würde nur interessieren ob du denn auch TÜV auf Alles bekommen hast? Toll gemacht, super sound, perfekter style....

[@Bibabatzi]

Vielen Dank, freut mich. Bei mir hat das mit dem Tüv leider nicht geklappt. Der jetzige Besitzer hat allerdings nach ein paar Modifikationen Tüv bekommen - ist auch ein bisschen Glückssache!

[@notty5000]

Hey, great video. I just bought a 125. I would lke to buy a bobbed rear fender. I know many have made one, but I am not a fabricator.

[@johnbass1666]

hi I'm French I would like to know the size of your tires and if you change your rims or not the tire size

[@bevan24]

Me to lucky6z, been looking all over the web for hints and tips. Going into doing my test soon and not sure wether to go with the Honda shadow or the Yamaha xvs

[@realmadmike2007]

Nice Backyard Home grown Custom. Was hat der Tüv zum Rahmen gesagt? Ich scheue mich noch davor die Säge anzusetzen.

[@bigmoncom]

Wirklich hübsch, und das trotz des kleinen Motors.

[@imagine-wl6mn]

Schönes Motorrad, was hast du für nen Auspuff dran gemacht?

[@04passenger]

hi again, i have some more questions. have you re jetted the carb? and have you bought those whitewalls or just painted the tyres? and one last question. the front rim u used is the original one right?

[@thomashodgkinson8885]

what tricked out parts u got on that love to do the same to mine nice bike mate

[@Nils-nn1hk]

Wie war das fahrverhalten der Maschine? Es sieht ja schon bissl eng aus zwischen deinem Knie und dem Lenker! Und hast du die Rahmenkürzung und den Auspuff eingetragen bekommen?

[@soul996]

which exhaust system did you use?

[@MrRpfc89]

nice bike. where can i buy the rear fender?

[@justinhabor32]

Woher hast du die Auspuffanlage und hast du die Eingetragen bekommen oder nicht.Nur die Auspüffe muss ich wissen da ich meine Yamaha XV 125 auch umbaue und so ähnliche verwenden wollte.Die ich aber sehr wahrscheinlich per Einzelabnahme abnehme lassen muss.

[@ericmuller8645]

Kleine Frage, was ist das fürn Auspuff und wo bekommt man den? Der ist wirklich geil.

[@andygilchrist9015]

I would pay to have one of those

[@ghost666HAZE]

Okay cool, where did you get your handlebars from?

[@johnloftus1917]

wat have you done to give the big that great sound and grunt for it being a 125 cc

[@Korsfestelse]

Put straight pipes on your 125 and you'll see. :p Stock pipes are so heavily muffled you'd never think a 125 could sound beefy.

[@kaikruner6971]

Korsfestelse tru even the smal 50cc can have a good sound.. if you have a 125cc 2stroke forget it 😂
