This sweet sexy Yamaha Virago 250 cc bobber motorcycle has a great look. I really like the gloss green paint with the flat black on the fuel tank. The classic bobber tractor seat in brown is a great overall look. I really like the double white wall tires. The flat black frame and engine has a great look. These bobber motorcycle pipes have a more unique touch to them. It looks as though the pipes have leather wrapping on them. I am not sure if it is a paint job or just a powder coating. You can see the the touches that have … Continue reading →

I like the rigid tank with the candy red peanut tank. The wrapped exhaust pipes, swoop up at an angle that kinda worry me. I think I would end up burning my leg.
