We are offering for sale :-

1983 Yahama XV750 in Black with gold detailing

US Spec donor. 25K miles. MOT to Dec 2015. on SORN. V5 present 

Starting with a Midnight Virago. we decided to stick with the 1980’s Black and Gold theme. part streetfighter. part caf? racer. Black bike. gold wheels: it’s a bit of old school customising.  

This is a new build from the frame up. taking 150 hours of labour including :-

Frame modified to accept the modified tank from a 750 Seca. New rear subframe for the leather seat and tail pod. digital speedometer/tacho. Carbs cleaned and extensively reworked to produce better throttle response .   

Powder coated frame. swinging arm etc in satin black. fresh paint and polishing. lots of stainless fasteners

All fluids. service items. plugs. caps. diff oil etc replaced as per full 24K service

Good tyres. pads. disc. &  FJ1200 master cylinder with braided hose.

TBH The full build spec is extensive and this description could go on for several pages; the pics tells a better story; riding it through our country roads reveals the full fun of this bike.  

Should mention that as will all 30 year old bikes there are the odd marks here and there. and the tail pod has a small mark in the paint courtesy of a dozy mechanic
