  • In this video I explain most of the mods to my custom 88 Yamaha Virago 1100 Motorcycle Build to turn it into a bobber on a budget and give a walkaround of it in detail. Lots of info on some of the mods to the bike, and a few clips of it running to hear the exhaust. Hope to do an upcoming video of some ripping and cruising! LED headlight, MX foot pegs, Bobber Seat, LED switchback turn signals, Custom exhaust, patina / rust on the tank and fender, reserve tank delete, Bars, Bar end mirrors, Suzuki coils, Accel plug wires, Modified air cleaner box, Brake light / plate combo.

    Ya got that nice "Hot for Teacher" beat soundin' off at an idle.. 😎
    I'm kinda trippin' that there's only two bolts holding the rear fender on, or at least that's what it looked like.. You'd think it'd be bouncin' quite a bit.. Does it stay pretty steady mounted like that?.. 🤔

      Thanks! You are right, the switch back lights need a new relay to work with them, but there isn't really any major wiring involved. Just replaced stock components with the LED stuff using all the factory wiring.

      The relay is just a generic LED flasher from eBay. I try not to post links since they aren't permanent links. If you haven't seen my newest video on the bike I go into a lot more depth on both the fender and the lights.

      They have a sticky back and a zip tie built into them. I ditched the internal zip tie and ran clear ones over them to act as a diffuser for the light. Yes you would need to run a led flasher for them to work properly.

    Nice work on your XV Evan! What was your method for rusting up the tank and fenders? Did you leave it out in the rain to rust naturally, or did you use a chemical to accelerate the process? How much clear coat did you apply to protect it?

    • @EvanWells07
      @EvanWells07  3 года назад +1

      i stripped the paint down and let it rust naturally, i did use a mixture of salt and hydrogen peroxide to add a bit in a few spots where it didnt rust as much as i liked, and also add some color variation (the orange rust).

    • @EvanWells07
      @EvanWells07  3 года назад +1

      for the clear coat i just used spray paint, and put as many coats as i could get out of 1 can. dont remember how many it was at this point.
