Yamaha Virago XV 750 by De Stijl Moto

The Yamaha Virago XV 750 is a great motorcycle, but when you think of it you likely don’t think of a killer cafe racer.

Well, that’s exactly what De Stijl Moto was able to do with this Virago.

The bike looks absolutely killer and it’s one of the best cafe bikes I’ve seen in a little while. Built with high-end components and painted a beautiful shade of green, this is a wonderful bike.

Yamaha XT550 “La Lupa” by Francis Von Tuto

The Yamaha XT550 is one of my favorite bikes to see customized, and this bike called La Lupa built by Francis Von Tuto is no exception. It’s a beautiful motorcycle.

The XT550 is a unique motorcycle and it makes for a great scrambler or tracker design as you can see here.

It is a bike that came out in the 1980s and it has aged really well. This custom is great because it’s still recognizable as a Yamaha XT550.

Yamaha Scorpio 225 Custom by Backyard Customs

Scrambler motorcycles get my blood pumping every time, and this Yamaha Scorpio 225 Custom by Backyard Customs is a perfect example of why.

The bike is a rugged and beautiful scrambler. It was customized with care but built to not be a showroom piece. It was purpose-built.

Backyard Customs is a shop in Bali, and the buys at the shop did a wonderful job with this machine.

Yamaha XS650 Bobber By Eastern Spirit Garage

Of all the types of bikes out there I love bobbers the most. It’s these bikes that first drew me to motorcycles. The simplicity of them. And this Yamaha XS650 bobber built by Eastern Spirit Garage is a perfect example of the kind of custom bike I love.

The Yamaha XS650 is a common motorcycle for customizing, and it’s clear why, it can be made into anything, and looks great as a cafe racer, scrambler, or (as seen here) bobber.

This particular bike is an excercise in simplicity and attention to detail. It’s a master work built by master craftsmen.

Yamaha XS650 Bobber “Big Wheel” by A&J Cycles

The Yamaha XS650 is one of the best bikes to find and customize, and this Yamaha XS650 Bobber “Big Wheel” by A&J Cycles is a perfect example of this.

The bike is an absolutely beautiful machine from the overall style of the bike down to the paint job on the tank. It’s simple, stripped-down, and just plain cool.
