John.R Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 (edited) Hi, Posted in the correct section this time! After just over a week of having this kit I've finally built it, I've not added a few features which the instructions mention mainly the Aluminium stantions on the Front Forks and the Gold teardrop decals on the tank, this is because I've built the bike as one my neighbour had a few years ago, and apart from the lettering on the Yamaha on the tank the other Yamaha couldn't be seen as he had replaced the side panels with aftermarket ones! Thanks for Looking! Edited November 21, 2014 by John.R 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raystorm Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Nice work! My dad had a Virago (now with my brother in Canada), so for various reasons I've built 3 of these! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John.R Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 Thanks for the comments, This was a real good build to get the mojo working again!r.e the seat, I sprayed it first with plastikote flat black then Humbrol Satin Black acrylic, Unsure what the next kit will be but its looking like another one of these or a superbike!
