Title: Kymco Pulsar LX 125 (2010)
Post by: meyer on February 08, 2013, 03:48:16 PM

Hi, am new to this site and wonder if anybody can help me.
I bought a second hand Pulsar and it needs a few bits replacing on it. The speedo casing is broken but as it is only plastic can anybody tell me if there is a good strong metal equivalent that will work on an LX 125 (Pulsar Base 2010)? I heard that a Suzuki GS125 speedo might work, is this true?
Would I be able to fit a Honda CG or similar speedo?
Secondly, the exhaust baffle is shot. Before I buy a whole new exhaust from Kymco is there a good Japanese equivalent?
Thirdly, the centre stand lug is huge! Is there a Japanese equivalent that will fit?
Lastly, the headlight is a bucket type but on the website it shows the Pulsar with a windshield. Can I change the headlight for the full windshield setup?
This is my first Kymco -  I bought it as a cheap commuter bike. While I reckon the engine is sound (it's a Honda copy after all), I think the build quality could be improved on in the areas mentioned above.
Thanks in advance for any help/advice you can give.

I would be more creative and make a cafe racer out of that Pulsar...It would be exciting!!! ;D ;D ;D

Also, original Kymco parts would be more expensive than aftermarket custom parts.... Welcome to the forum...

Yeah, I can just see the top box on the back of a cafe racer  :)

I like the exhaust in the photos though, definitely not standard Kymco.
