What a beautiful job! I have been riding bikes for 47 years, I had an array of some nice bikes like the Kawa Z1 back in the late 70’s, a Yamaha exup FZR 1000, etc. Now I am 64 and I own a 1992 virago 750 and I just love it, great on turns here I Guatemala and very planted and stable, watching this video has given me some interesting ideas, many thanks for it.
Thanks for the nice comment. All I've done was pretty cheap as I've done it all with cheap solutions.
Very nice job bro! Congratulations!!!
I have an 82 750 virago. Custom exhaust, pearl white. Putting a 1000 watts of stereo on next
I see that's a Japanese market bike? Metric speedo and all. but I really liked the factory two-tone paint. Like the 50's were over here. Never see those 750's over here? So I bought the 2018 V Star 250 Lowrider Custom Cruiser. Built 06/17 and titled as a 2018, it was the first year of Raven Black Metallic. But the black metallic you used has more metal flake in it? What was the brand, etc of the paint?
Original this bike is made for the European market. I also loved the original paint, that's actually why I bought it in the first place. But after fitting the new handlebar I didn't change the handlebar stoppers and this ended in some pretty annoying dents in the tank. So changed it al.
I've used the cheapest paint, but have been very happy with the result. www.action.com/nl-nl/p/spectrum-metallic-spuitverf/
All together I've not spent more than €150 for the full build.
Awesome job! May I ask if the paint job was hard? Did you use 2k cleacoat?
The paintjob was pretty easy, i only used spray cans. I would sugest 2k clearcoat. I didn't use 2k, but this will defenitly be a better choice for the tank. Make sure to spray in a lot of layers and in a dust and wind free area.
Wat een mooi ding! Helemaal na je werk eraan. Prachtig. Ik ga hopelijk binnenkort voor m'n 1e motor kijken. Neig erg naar een Virago.
Ik zelf vindt het ook een leuke motor, maar het is wel echt een kleine motor. Qua zitpositie is het echt een heel kort stuk van zadel naar stuur. Daar kon ik niet heel erg goed aan wennen. Toen het café racer stuur er op zat was het een stuk beter. Wel een gedoe toen met de stuurstopper om te zorgen dat deze niet tegen de tank aan kon komen. Ik zou zeker eerst eens een goede testrit gaan maken.
Goed om te weten. Thanks voor de tip! Het stuur leek mij inderdaad wel iets om aan te passen.
I like those handle bars can you post info , working on a 1996 750 virago bobber project
Bought them here: www.westlandcustoms.com/Webwinkel-Product-50688583/22mm-Cafe-racer-stuur-M-style-zwart.html
Hoe erg verandert de zitpositie bij het gebruik van dat stuur? Ziet er mooi uit maar meen te herinneren dat je bij de Virago, normaal gesproken, vrij ver achterover zit. Kun je er dan nog comfortabel enkele uren mee rijden?
Zie 2:10 in de video. Daar heb ik het nieuwe stuur er op. Ik vond de originele zitpositie niet prettig. Het stuur zat te dichtbij en door dit café racer stuur zit je een stuk meer naar voren. Ik ben trouwens niet groot. 1,70m en de Virago is een kleine motor.
@@globastiaan Op dat tijdstip in de video zit je best mooi rechtop. Kreeg je geen last van je armen bij langere ritten? Ik had dat vooral met het originele stuur op mijn vaders XV750. Mijn vriendin wil nou zo'n fiets, maar dan zonder het stuur en de ruggesteun achterop haha. Wil dus wat 'light mods' gaan toepassen.
Thanks voor je antwoord!
Looks great. Did you get a lot of backfire on decel after gutting those pipes? Love the paint job
cirelachlan I thought I put a bigger main jet in the carb's. 117,5. No problems after the change.
Mooie fiets,en mooi resultaat!!
Welk type helm was dat?
Een oud type boxer helm. Zelf gespoten met mat finish
Hey... I'm test driving the exact same year model tomorrow. Read about this model, in previous years having starter issues... Does yours?
Mine did not have starter problems, but after the rebuild I didn't keep it for long. It did take some time to let it run smoothly because of the open exhaust, but other than that it all worked fine.
Hey Nout,
Top video, heb ff vraagje..
Ik zag dat je de dempers uit de uitlaat heb gehaald, wat is dat witte spul dat je erin gedaan hebt???
Dat waren de oude metalen doorboorde gaten, opgevuld met uitlaat cement. Maar dit is af te raden. Het brokkelen af na verloop van tijd. Het beste koop je een aluminium ring die je erin vast last ofzo. Zonder kan ook, maar ik had het idee dat het mooier klinkt als je deze ring erin hebt. wordt het geluid dieper. De metalen oude opening is wel vast blijven zitten met dat cement (gum gum praxis).
+Nout de Laat Thnx, ik begin deze week aan mn virago. Beetje inspiratie aan het opdoen hier...
Succes. Ik heb na het aanpassen van de uitlaat erg lang moeten spelen met de carburateurs. Uit eindelijk heb ik (mikuni carbs) de main jet van 115 naar 117,5 veranderd en daarmee liep hij goed. pilot jet is hetzelfde gebleven en liep prima stationair.
So I saw that you rejetted the carb, I'm about to buy an 1985 700xv, the guy said the carb needs to be rebuilt.. where did you buy your jets from and what sizes were they? Any other things I should buy to rebuild it?
I went from MIKUNI size 115 tot 117,5. I was lucky to get the jets at a local custom bike shop close by. It's not easy to get the carbs of the bike, so it took me a while before it all ran smoothly. I also did not need to change the gaskets. Just a lot of carb cleaner and i was good to go :D. Make sure that all the rubber and plastics are of the carb before using carb cleaner.
Good luck!
What’s the bars and where did u buy them
Nou kees, knap werk 🎉
Te felicito,tuve una 15 años,inolvidable!!!
Mooie motor man, mijn vader heeft ook de zelfde motor.
we gaan hem deze vakantie ombouwen naar een cafe racer.
Mooi Nout. Thx. Weet jij of ik een paar fishtails makkelijk over de stock uitlaten kan monteren? Zoiets als www.motea.com/en/craftride-exhaust-yamaha-xv-750-535-250-virago-left-and-right-fishtail-chrome-166091-0 ?
Zeker weet ik dat niet, maar het lijkt volledige open Fishtails te zijn, dus ik denk dat het niet veel veranderd in de tegendruk.
cool bike, wich handlebar do you have on it?

Awesome sound and re-build! :D
thanks!
hi awesome work ! i have a question please , what did you use for exhaust to mask those holes resulted after taking off the thin tubes from the end of exhaust ? i mean what is that white material ? Thank you
It was gumgum exhaust paste with a little metal wire frame in it. but it did not work out for a long time. After a while it startet to break.
its Gun Gum exhaust paste.
so do you think will last or i have to repeat after a while that process with gun gum ? thank you so much
only the metal frame broken after a while ?
+dan laurentiu
the Gun Gum paste softens after a while, so it did not work well. But the sound after and before the Gun Gum paste is much deeper with. I think because of the vibrations the paste starts to break away.
AWSOME job!
kakarote2277 thnx!
nice sound what are theese exhaust?
Original exhaust, just got rid of the muffler.
it would've been lovely if you left the sound on during your ride in the last third of the video
I would love to have the sound back, but TH-cam removed it because the music I've used. I don't know what I can do to get the sound back. Pretty bad.
@@globastiaan ah fair enough, it's a lovely bike and I love what you did with it, hopefully soon I'll come into possession of a 750 virago just like the one you showed with the original looks ^.^ (it belonged to my nan which is why I'm really hoping to get it)
What happened with the sound?
Good question... I have now idea. Maybe TH-cam removed the songs I used. That's pretty crappy.
Noice👊
La mejor amiga que tuve en mis 31 años de vida :,)
Nice!
can you do a pure sound video please?
Patrick Huszarik
sorry, but i dont have the bike any more. I still have a video riding on it with the camera on the back. Will post that somewere next month.
Nout de Laat OK thanks! I have a virago 750 and would like to have a better idea of what it sounds like debaffeled.
give me a week and I can post one for you. sounds amazing!

I have a 88 virago 1100 bobber bar hopper
Like van Neil en Lijn ❤
Broer?
Nice mods!!!!
I need those wheels!!!!!!
Thomas Semernezski Haha, these wheels are original.
yea lets overlay some music so we cant actually hear the bike... great idea
Don't understand how you can't hear the bike. All the time my GoPro didn't have wind notice I've turned the sound down.
/the sound of the music I mean
Fantastisch
same handl u have drive ...the viagra dont go faster. only in u head .
But for me the seat position improved a lot. Now I could press on the handlebars instead of hang on them. Feels much better.
lol didnt ashowed the bike
более ее глушыть извращения
Trot asellares
Music sucks.........wanna hear the engine music
Troth problems
you forgot to show us the bike
After this video kinda started to be seen more and more i fully agree. I should have made more footage of the final product. Unfortunatly i've sold the bike since this video. 😞
