      From Osaka, Japan: This is a 1998 1100 Virago. There aren't very many of the large Viragos in Japan - they weren't normally sold here. I purchased the blke used in July of 1999. It had only 120 kilometers on it...Practically new. The original color was metallic blue. I had it painted metallic red and applied the flame decals to the tank and side covers. Also I installed a wide triple tree from "Planet Cruiser" which adds 5 degrees of rake and that brings the front end down 1.5 inches. The custom "Works Performance" shocks brings down the rear end..."Jardine" forward controls; "Mustang" - Regal Duke seat; "Willie & Max" fork bag; "Cobra" exhaust; 8 inch risers for the drag bars; after market mirrors & rear turn signal lights. The front turn signals are from a Honda VLX 600 Shadow; the side stand is an after market piece made for a 250 "V STAR". Over the tail light is a spoiler that I made myself.
