Won't be the same as the xlv1000 as this engine is based on a vtr1000 engine, xlv750 is an older engine design closer to a ntv600 engine. VT750 are also based on the ntv engine have you checked out a vt750 stator?

The XLV750 is not related to any other Honda V twin - it's air cooled, dry sumped and 45 degree...but that's not to say they didn't use a common part in these engines.

Never seen one in those ghey colours, they were black and red. I can tell you they are as top heavy as they look. Ridden one a few times.

...I had one for years, loved it, but it was not a lightweight off road machine...picking one up after a catapulting type of highside on a trail took some muscle and grit...

I have seen one red white and blue one in NZ, imported as we never got them. I used to know a Pommy who had a set of French coloured XLV750 leathers, he had one in the UK and had leathers custom made to match. He wanted one in NZ, and ended up with an ''Italian"" colour scheme version, blue and black. There was also a silver and black, Japan only I think.

Very top heavy, like riding with a couple of cement bags across your knees. Mine was the first bike I owned that I couldn't pick up, very embarrassing. One time in the middle of nowhere I found a 2 metre length of fence post to lever the bike up with.

On a trip to pick up a bike for me my 100kg mate was feeling a bit tired so I rode his bike with him on the back. Once underway the XLV was fine but I was a bit less sure footed stopped at road works. Then he falls asleep.
