May The Grip Be With You
Hi guys,
my name is Robert and I live in the Netherlands.
First of all, I 'd like to thank all the posters for giving so much information at this forum.
It's a big source of information and inspiration for me.
After building a pocketbike and a Toylander for the kids, which was great fun, I decided to build a cafe racer for myself.
Yesterdag I bought the base for this project: a Virago 750.
I choose this one mainly because it was cheap ;D , but also because I think the spoked wheels and the twin shocks suit my objective to give the bike a classic Yamaha racer look.
I will keep you posted on my progress and look forward to your comments and advice.
Is there a special reason why practically everyone with a Virago project uses the monoshock version? Is it just for the looks or is there a technical advantage to use the monoshocks?
