The H6 250 & 360 are easy to get parts but the 125 is a diffrent story
and the parts when you do find them are worth a fortune...
Is why it is all cleaned/polished up and sitting in my lounge...

That is going to eventually be the life of my Goldwing. I don't like vehicles that have to sit. I am a firm believer in driving/riding something as it was intended. I am so avid on maintenance and care for my vehicles because I can be hard on them.

While you could argue that technicality, it's not a Harley engine. It wasn't designed by them, and more importantly, it's water cooled - but not a V-Rod engine, and pretty much came straight from Rotax.

The 1190 is essentially the next evolution from the 1125. That might be it's saving grace as far as parts go, such as brake rotors and pads and other smaller bits.
