YAMAHA VIRAGO - The Unsung Hero

Saw these two YAMAHA Virago 535 at BM Supply few days back..quite pleased to see there are still some been nicely kept..these days most of it are pretty out of shape..matter of fact not much of people know that this bike used to out-sold Harley Davidson back in the 80-90's when it first launched in the US, forced HD to re-think about their marketing plan & improved their bikes just to compete with this little wonder...

these 2 particular bikes has been nicely done with metal & paint works to create a "Bobber" looks..but not too sure about the HD Sportster looks, to me the VIRAGO are lagendary enough and deserve to carry it's own name & Looks than turning it into a mixbred of YAMA-HARLEY....
