I would never recommend the Yamaha XV 1000 TR1 for a cafe racer project.
But after seeing this bike built by Christian Moretti, owner of Plan B Motorcycles, everything changed.
The first time i saw this machine, i couldn't believe, how different it became.
Interestingly, the Yamaha XV 750 Virago, is also a good base model for a similar project.
This bike is also proves, that small changes can make the difference.
Enjoy.

I have to agree I would have NEVER thought that a Yamaha Virago would lend itself into such a Gorgeous Cafe Racer Style of machine ! What an incredible bike !! I can still hear the Telltale Crappy Virago Starter Problem still exists however...Those Starters and gears were always problematic...for everyone. What a nice bike though!!!

I came home from work on Friday after a rough week. First thing I do is look at your new video. Felt better immediately. I wouldn't have thought you could turn that XV1000 into a great cafe bike either.Thanks for the pick me up.

Oh boy! You've just showed me the project I have had in mind. A TR1 with a small hanging seat and a better looking swingarm and upside down forks with better brakes. It will be my 1st attempt and I'm not a mechanic so not sure it's a good 1st bike to build. I do have access to a draughtman to design CNC work for me so that's not a big problem and I am going to attempt to build the parts in carbon rather than metal or plastic. Still in planning and infant stages but these videos are very informative and opens my eyes to the possibilities.Thank you!

I remember seeing this bike a while agowhile searching for beautiful cafe racer online, and a detail that I loved was the exhaust pipe and the beautiful lines of the tank, time later turned to find but fails to find it, now months after your bring her to me again ... you talk a lot of passion in your videos, love the cafe racer, because I'll tell you one thing, I see passion in what you do and transmit in a wonderful way with every week ... Perhaps the perfect "cup of tea" for me is not beautiful bike last week, perhaps the perfect "cup of tea" for me is RACER TV ...

It's an cool bike with some serious sculpting technique in the tank and overall body shape off the bike.The Italians are known for there ability in metallurgy and sculpting of metals,just like they are known for having an eye for striking shapes,so it's no wonder this bike is a Bella figura.

what impress me the most is the individual, like christian did with this project is truly unique. but I'm more impressed with his persistence and determination to built something which many will think or tell that's impossible. those guys which have such a talent like christian i really admire them. i have a CB500F 2013 model and look at it to figure it out if it would be possible to make it a cafe racer and i wonder if i have half of the talent like christian here what would be achievable.

A principal dificuldade, é ter que levantar a traseira da moto, para poder rebaixar a frente. Para isso existem 2 possibilidades: Colocar uns amortecedores traseiros mais altos, e/ou aumentar o diâmetro da roda traseira. Espero ter ajudado amigo. Abraço.

The far more prosaic Virago in the picture is, in it's simplicity, stunning. It is a true "motorcycle" with the motor taking the centre stage in this project. Simple, elegant, purposeful. I want one.

+Arthur Palma There is no perfect bike for a cafe racer project. Everything depends of what every person needs, and what he most like. I don't see any problem with the CB1300 for a cafe racer project. I only recommend trying to create an horizontal stance, just to achieve a more retro look. Good luck. Cheers.

There are so many variables, that is almost impossible to answer your question. It depends of the level of transformation that you want. But i would sugest to search on youtube for "Cafe Racer Tips" , and you will find several of my videos that will help you about that. Cheers.

+massimiliano parisella To be honest, that's a very difficult question. Because everything depends on our personal taste. But i think the old japanese and italian bikes and also the Bmw bikes, are probably the easiest, because they don't demand to much work for the transformation. I hope this helps. Cheers.

This Video just gave away a secret in that Mission Impossible Video Clip that was played in the beginning of this video lol!! When the red street bike went off the dirt jump and was in the air, you can see that the bike has Knobby rear dirt tires, and after the bike landed, the bike was showed or seen with Rain/Street Tires.... If nobody else noticed lol, check it out, I could be wrong but I am 99%sure. Thats funny we dont see that kinda stuff while watching the movie lol. Have a great day people!

+Andrew Carbines Sorry to hear that about this voice. I use this "robotic" voice, because i'm Portuguese, and my bad english accent (and voice), can ruin the documentary character that i like for my videos. I already tried a real american voice in one of my videos, but things didn't worked as i expected. Believe it or not, the robotic voice sounds very good for all non english natives. Try to see all this, as one of the firsts youtube channels in the world, using a voice that isn't real. It couldn't be more original than that. :) Cheers.

Very nice lines. Aggressively beautiful. A lot of modern bikes try to achieve this look but are not simple enough nor have the lines to achieve what this has. Really excellent engineering on the triple clamps and sub frame. There has been a lot of work on this project. Not my favourite motor but it gets good treatment here. These motors were a bit light on in character but maybe that has been modified. Excellent presentation in the video. On another issue, I saw this bike on Pipeburn and it looks like a very good one for Racer TV. www.pipeburn.com/home/2015/08/21/bmw-r50-cytech.html The Pipeburn reviewer, while giving a good appraisal of the work that went into the bike, does not undertsand the true nature of traidtional bikes but I am sure you could do better. If I may make one suggestion for improvement in your very enjoyable video clips it would be to also give more insight into what these bikes are like to actually ride because to me this is more about the true nature of the bike than the appearance. I realise however, the great difficulties this could create for you because many people, probably through lack of experience, appreciate bikes that are compromised in their engineering and feel.

+Thomas Elliott I'm glad you also liked this one. Thanks for your suggestion. The BMW seems to be also a very nice bike. The problem is that i'm always finding others even better, and with more photography material available. I also understand your suggestion about the feeling of the riding each bike, but according to most Racer TV Fans, they are looking for ideas and inspirational projects. I hope you understand. But thanks for your help. Cheers.

This time I am not agree with your constantation. This is not a first great Virago project. I saw nice conversions by Hageman in the states, also in the Netherlands by Dutch cafe racers, great bike with Benelli Mojave tank, custom subframe, Motolana seat and Ducati USD fork.

+ZOS No problem, i honestly respect diferent opinions. Sometimes is just a question of our personal taste. I think Hageman Viragos are very similar to the "orange project" that we saw in this video. They are nice bikes, but i think they are lacking some refinement. But thanks for sharing your comment. Cheers.
