I like it a lot, it sounds like a fart in the bath.

+Life On Unleaded what happened to your old style of vids man miss em
lol I felt the same about the sound.. so much work, very little balls
Hahaha :D as I first heard it's sound I thought the same
your comment had me ROFL'ing!!!!
Watched this video 2 years ago and it made me want a virago. Tomorrow I finally go pick one up 😁
Beautiful! Always loved cafe racers, especially virago builds! Can't wait for more videos.
Cheers dude!
This sound track should be on every cafe racer video ever
I really enjoy café racer builds on pre-1984 XV750, that one is brilliant !
The music fits this stuff so good ...awesome😍
one of the most beautiful shots in a build video man! definitely definitely awesome.
Congrats on the new Cafe racer/brat bike and nice to see your still around
I watch this again and again. I'm in the process of building my own yamaha xv cafe racer.
This song and editing are top notch, well done
Love your videos! I wish they were more frequent but I know how busy life can get. Keep it up man it's always good stuff!👍🏼
Thanks dude, I'm hoping to get a load more out this year!
That turned out great! Love the upside down Harley banner!

Most satisfying video I've ever watched so far 😂👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I was so sure I was not going to be that impressed when I saw XV750 in the title cos they are fugly! What a top job. Beautiful bike!
Cheers Kenneth!
Came for the bike, stayed for the song!
Lovely bike!
+James Kingston Thanks dude!
@@LifeOnUnleaded greetings! Love this build. I’m doing one as well. Any chance you could tell me where you got your throttle cable? I put clip-ons onto my forks so my OEM cable is too long now. Looking for the length and brand you went with. I’m thinking I’ll need a 30” cable + or - a few”. Thanks!
Bike looks awesome Louis!! 👍🏻
Cheers pal!
That's so clean congrats Loui
Cheers Sam!

Mint! Im not normally a fan of Cafe Racers but this is nice!
that looks epic
Thanks!
Can't wait to get mine done! Same 81xv750. Got the subframe built swapped the stock front end with an 06 R6. Front wheel will be here this week so I can finalize the lines of the tank angle and subframe, then it'll be close to road worthy. Hopefully by the end of July I can be out rippin' on 'er!
Wicked!
Awesome video
Cheers Lucky!
Subtle shoutout to Otis Elevator! Nice bike man good work
looks nice
I love this video
that song is sick as f**k not even my style but the haunting yet hypnotic vibes are incredible 👍💯🔥
Very nice !!!
Sicck video bro ! Bike looks amazing :)
Cheers Hash!
They turned one of the biggest jokes of the 80's into gold
chris fox-james No, they turned him all skinny chinos, victorian beard & latte !!
Those old soft-cruisers are much better suited for a quick chop/bob, can get immensely cool at very little expense.
But the music is ear rape. 😫
Yeah, cool if you’re a knob!
@@natekerx85 Or a hipster!
AWSOME
so nice, im turning my YBR125 yama into a sort of cafe racer style bike
sadly i dont have access to a turning lathe, welder or big funds
looks amazing :)
well done. like the music
Thanks, check out SAFAKASH on Soundcloud!
what a nice cafe racer :O
Excellent!!!
Cheers!
bro .. I'm fucking in love with this bike ..! this is the 30th time I'm watching this video .!! holy .. ffoking shit ..!
good job
Mate it looks the business!
Cheers Ben!
awesome
Amazing build! Im doing once myself right now, and was wondering what mods were needed to fit the Gen 2 5 spoke wheel into the Gen 1 swingarm. The offset is different and without removing the drive side too, there isn't enough space to slot in the wheel and brake hub! Any help would be greatly appreciated! Keep up the good work!
Nice need to get one
Cheers!
top videos! keep it up
nice man... keep it up
Thanks Joshua!
Extremely beautiful bike!
I also have an original Virago XV 750 SE from '81.
Can i know which front forks and wheel you used?
Did you take a lithion battery?
Can i buy you exhaust? How mutch would you ask.
Greetings from Belgium
Have some mercy with this music!
Just found your bike on e bay exactly the type of cafe racer I want
The song in this video is called Shine by Arya Safakish, I've put a link to the song and his album on iTunes if you'd like to help support him too!
+Life On Unleaded Hey guys nice project! What are the kits that you use to send the shift pedals to the rear of the bike?
Thanks
You're awesome
Sick usage of classic sample , After Laughter (Comes Tears)" - Wendy Rene . Wu Tang's Tears track as well.
Love the video, great production value. I have a custom build very similar to yours that I am refurbishing. Quick question, where did you located your battery? My best guess is at the bottom in front of your rear wheel?
So gooooooood
Ayyy!
Hi, I wanted to know which fork you used and the changes you made to mount it. Thanks and congratulations for the work.
So much love for this. Not sure why I felt I was about to watch better call Saul at the beginning though, that kind of style. Awesome
Nicely done!
How did you hide the electrics?
Very nice Bike
Very nice bike. Please tell as, how did you install the rear wheel from the 2nd generation of virago?, can not be seen in the video because the man in white T-shirt is in front of the camera. Thank you
Beautiful bike! Was that rear wheel swap straight across with a gen 2 wheel and gen 2 brake housing?
Absolutely tidy work there, although I would do something about the sound lol
You had me, right up to the angle grinder sparks...
Amazing project, what front end did you use?
dope
Must have watched this 20 times now.... 😅🤤
Marvelous!
Original fuel tank or custom?
Hey! love the video :) strange question though. What brand and style of Jeans are you wearing in the video. I've been fiendin' for a pair for a while.
1:38 When you guys weld the seat Steel bar to that metal bushing holder thing, was it tight and secure? I plan to flux weld, think that'll suffice? haha
I want this so bad 😩😩😩
absolutely beautiful ! bravo on such a fucking cool build :o)
Thanks!
Incredible build! Just found your channel and its already one of my favorites. The seat on this cafe racer looks amazing! Can you tell me who makes them or teh brand? I would be interesting in having this put on my new build.
It's from Biltwell, check out their website.
you should come back you make great videos
How much did the shop charge you for the subframe modifications/seat?
How did you install, or fabricate, the rear tire cover / splash guard?
Do you have the steps to build this? I really like the design
u hav class video
very nice work and awesome video.as i`m trying to cafeing my virago,is there any video or something that would help me on what to do?could someone suggest me something so i can start from somewhere?the only thing i have done so far is to naked the bike.
I would have a look online "How to build a cafe racer" I'm sure you'll find something!
i was looking for an 81-82 virago..but are quite hard to find.. so i m curious if you can fit the swingarm from a 81 to the 90s models ?
