3 week Virago

TricDick

Been Around the Block
Put the BMW on the back burner to try and knock out a Virago in 3 weeks. found a clean 82 with 4k miles and have always wanted to do one and thought if I could do it and flip it in 3 weeks, then more $$$ for the Bemmer.

thought for time saver I would buy a subframe from Doc's til I saw the price and about shit myself, so took the time and with help from my buddy Robert, built one, think it turned out sweeter anyway.

I also build one a few years ago, great bikes, with extreme power( mine was a XV920 )
Used the footpegs from an R1 by the way
I always found the frontfork legs look too "skinny" for the bike.

These bikes actually need an USD
