Looks great! What size and brand tires did you use front and back? I’m working on a virago build and trying to figure out the largest tires I can get away with especially in the rear. Without rubbing.
Same . While my engine is out and getting a complete overhaul, I had time to turn my frame into a gas tank. Welding all the holes , sealing and powder coating was a pain in the ass but worth it. Took a 2 weeks and 60 hrs + . As soon as the engine was done I was able to drop it on top. No downtime. Now , if I can find a faster way to sand cast all my foot pegs, levers and has tank cap ; I'd be happy. Oh well, another 80 or more hours to happy land.
@@3knightsmotors Very cool! Thanks for the info. Also, is that a 120/70/17 Front tire? I was curious to try a 120/80...I'm also using a GSXR front end.
@@3knightsmotors That looks like a GSXR600/750 FE, right? I really wanted to run an 80 to get close to the 90 rear...but tough to find in a 120. The extra height or width doesn't cause any issues?
@@3knightsmotors 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!
@@justinlacy8428 we still haven't got cables and break lines. These will be ordered when engine is installed. We will be looking at options of custom cables.
Bohdan Bychkovyak thanks 😊. Tank is original, back is lifted by around 70mm. Because of this we can fit munit and antigravity battery under the tank, regulator rectifier lives there as well 😉
@@scotts5571 it’s antigravity 801, I don’t remember how many cells, but as per their website- it fits 750cc bikes. Tank sits on original mounting points in the front and on battery box in the back
@@3knightsmotors I second the request from @Bohdan Bychkovyak for a video on how you made the seat and bracket, it looks very unique. It kind of looks like you used leaf springs but they look too thin. Anyway. if you cannot make a video of it can you at least let us know how you made it. Thanks!
@@3knightsmotors thank you for the reply sir.. im planing to build one soon by my self and i was womdering sir if i could get your fb so i could follow u and be my mentor for my build
I'm using a ZX10R Fork with a 130/80 17 tyre on my XV920R Build. How did you solve the clearance problem when the fork is completely compressed? The tyre starts to rub on the valve-maintenance-cap way before the end of the possible suspension travel...
@@RobAscenD I endet up machining a 20mm spacer to lengthen the damper inside the fork plus limiting the hydro-damping inside the fork by another 15mm... (resulting in 35mm total) Now there is about 10-15mm space between the tyre and the valve-maintenance-cap. If you are using the same Kawasaki fork, I can provide the CAD-files ;)
......You can ,Just contact Rajputana Customs,they made some amazing cafe racers with our good old Royal Enfield,just ask them if they can source for Yamaha XV750,they can prob mod it to a caferacer.

Excelente trabajo. Muy limpio y organizado. Me gustó mucho tu video 😎
Can't wait this next video 👍👍
great job. thank you
Thank you
Big old backbone frames are awesome
Can't disagree 😊
Amazing
I like that you used two rear tires.

Amazing Work!

Kofi Ofori maching Pirelly Sport Demons. Front- 130/80R17, rear- 130/90R16. We couldn’t fit wider tyre in the back due to driveshaft casing.
@@3knightsmotors Did you end up having to mod your kickstand? I'm almost done with the first phase of my build and my kick stand is too long now...
Kofi Ofori We will need to shorten it as well

Где вы нашли 130/90/r16? Я весь интернет облазил... всё out of stock. 130/80/17 уже дома а вот задание :((
What rear shock did you use? Did it work with the stock mounts?
We used Hagon shock, it’s designed as a direct replacement, fits to original mounts
Dope video - do you know if a 2003 r6 front end fits?
Jack Pistone yes it will fit. You’ll need right stem for r6 yoke
Where did you get the rims and tires ? And what size are they if you mind ? Thank you
Rear rim is original, front- Suzuki gsxr k1, came with fork. Tyres were purchased online, Pirelli Sport Demons. Front- 130/80/R17, rear- 130/90/R16.
First step for me is to place frame on engine. Then I start with the other parts.
Engine is not ready, yet 😉

Did you make the battery box and that secondary housing next to it? (not sure what's that's going to be for...I assume ancillary wiring?
Yes, we did. From the front: regulator rectifier (underneath is ignition unit), box for m-unit and battery box. All fits underneath of petrol tank.

@@blawicki GSXR1000, not easy to find matching tyres. Ours are Avon
you think its possible to use a 91
engine on a 83 frame?
It looks possible. There is a possibility that some fabrication will be needed.
What stem did you use for front end swap? did you buy from cognito moto or made your own?
Cognito moto stem was used
Could you be so kind and tell me what kind of tyres you used for front and rear. Many thanks in advance 🙂☺️
Actually I saw your reply to someone else with same question.
😍
hello. did u replace the bearings on front end frame. thx
If you are asking about head set bearings for the fork stem? We ordered bearings together with cognitomoto stem

Nice! what tyres you used? :D
Pirelli sport demon tyres
@@3knightsmotors what size did you fit? They go really well together, even with the different rim sizes.
Overall diameter of both wheels is the same. Front- 130/80/r17, back 130/90/r16. It wasn’t easy to find matching tyres in these sizes as well 😉
3:04 what’s with the tiny foot tapping to the music behind the front wheel 😂
Edit: oh that’s just the tip of his foot 😂
Awesome build! What gas tank are you using?
Also can you make a detailed video on how you mad the seat and the bracket? It looks really cool!
Bohdan Bychkovyak thanks 😊. Tank is original, back is lifted by around 70mm. Because of this we can fit munit and antigravity battery under the tank, regulator rectifier lives there as well 😉
What anti gravity battery did you use? And how did you get the gas tank to sit high? Bracket underneath ?

Will need to look at it 🤔 Our engine is still in bits on the work bench, thanks for highlighting possible issue 👍

Are these leaf springs used as subframe? XD
Yes, seat base is made from (УАЗ) leaf springs
It's still a Virago. There was a time you couldnt give those away. Starter sounds like its gonna explode on all of them.
