Too much !
Guys

Im thinking of parting with my cafe racer project to focus on racing any interested parties give me a shout.

1981 Virago xv 750 (American Import) Mono shock only produced for 3 years then switched to dual rear shocks. This was yamahas take on a Harley and per runner to the dragstar models.

Shaft drive V-twin
Custom exhaust
Bespoke cafe seat (by me)
Bespoke seat sub frame (by me )
Ballistics battery hidden under set ( US imported £130)
Ignition switch relocated
LED front indicators
LED stop light with integrated indicators
All in one speedo (£120)
Bespoke handle bars (by me)
Bar end mirrors
Retro grips
Braided brake line
Tank riser kit (by me)
Fuse box relocated
New 4 brush starter (£140)
Bespoke light weight loom (by me)

I was planning on making rear sets, doing a spoked wheel conversion and painting the engine black with polished fins. Bike has MOT till August tax is up already, these bikes have a stone age starting gear system which produces a terrible noise when starting but thats just the trait of these things. The custom exhaust gives it a Ducati bark which is lovely.

Bike will is good to go as is but its not mint as I have been changing things as I have been going along.
