Nicely Done XS650 Cafe.

Love the front drum brake. It puts the modern exhaust can a little out of place but the trackday he was at probably had sound limit restrictions.

Outrageous custom turbocharged XS650?

I stumbled across this very radical build pic on a message board. It was billed as an XS650 based custom. I’m not so sure though. Either way there’s a LOT of love in this build. There is no other info available. If anyone can fill us in it’d be much appreiated.

Virago!! Flat tracker!?!

In my new found fascination with all things Virago (see HEREe and HERE)I’ve discovered yet another incarnation of the basic simple V-twin ride… Soon we’ll be seeing Virago motocross bikes lol!

More "bikes not sold in the US". Yamaha Tricker Pro.

Never even heard of this till today. What a cool ride. It’s like the offspring of an enduro and a trials bike! I’d have killed for one of these 20 years ago when I lived a large city that had woods just outside of town.
