Cafe Racer - 1981 Yamaha Virago xv700

V-Twin cruiser turned into a sleek caf? racer. Zero rust. Never down. Clear title in hand. No leaks. Always garaged. This is a very well done example of a Cruiser-to-Caf? conversion. First and foremost. the bike is 100% functional. reliable. and most of all safe. No frame cutting. Instead. a $600 Hageman subframe kit has been installed. This bike has more power than any other 750 I’ve ridden. It’s also a very comfortable caf? conversion. All too often. caf? conversions leave the rider in uncomfortable riding positions. The stock wiring has been neatly tucked away behind the headlight in case the future owner wishes to add electronics. The tail end of the wiring harness has been re-routed out of view. along with the relocation of the rear suspension adjustment knob. Even in the cold. it starts reliably. Yes. Viragos sound a little unpleasant while starting but that’s their qwerk. It’s normal. I did all the restoration and conversion. TBC Hot Rods and Bikes of Fayetteville. NC did all the suspension. brakes. and engine work. If you visit their webpage you’ll see they only put out the highest quality work.
