    Get a virago single rear shock and then get docs chops frame for it. The sexiest bike I've seen and he said he rides like a dream.

    Coming the end of June, Subframe kits for 81-83 Yamaha Virago 920 and 750 monoshock models. They will also fit the TR1 chain drive bikes. These kits are made to use a stock 920 or 750 tank by raising the



    Those virago's go, at least in my area, from 500-1200 and the frame is about another 800... i dunno. This will be my bike of a project after I get another e30 of a project ;)

      Virago's are so slow though. I ride an 04 Kaw z1000 and love it. Ill post a picture if anyone wants to see it. Around 135hp and super light and very nice to ride. Loads of torque as well so it will throw up the front wheel pretty easily.

        I'm kind of partial to the old muscle bikes (and their smaller siblings) with modern updates. Been working on my kz650 for about a year and it's finally starting to shape up.

            Chicks also love torched assholes from the looks of that exhaust.

              haha, looks are deceiving, it kicked out a little further, ear plugs were required.

                Aha, I usually hate choppers, but that actually looks cool.

                  it didn't ride like one, it only had a 32 deg. rake, no rise or stretch. I scrapped to piss out of the foot pegs because I tried driving it like my street bikes all the time.

                      It's taken me a long time to accept that front tire as not being backwards, but that's the mfgr recommended direction.

                      Here is another pic from the other side.



                      It's still a work in progress so a few things are still going to change.

                              hmm not knowing much about bikes, I think I like the old muscle bikes. Or Cafe types. Dont think I want something crazy fast, just something to have fun with.

                                there are soo many choices when getting a bike for first time...where the hell do you start? for example if I wanted a cafe cruiser, do I just look that up on craigslist locally? ebay?
