Ross' JVB Moto Custom Yamaha XSR 700

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

After too many nights spent sleeping on the workshop floor and a near vertical learning curve from building his Cagiva flat tracker Ross decided that his next custom would be more of a bolt-on project.
Yamaha's highly accliamed XSR700 seemed the perfect place to start as he'd fallen in love with JVB Moto's Super 7 during the press launch in Sardinia.
The whole JVB kit and SC Project exhaust was fitted here in the Bike Shed after hours with a fairly basic tool kit.... no grinding, welding or messy stuff. If you can put together an Ikea Malm chest of drawers then the Super 7 kit is an easy weekend project.

Where does time go? I swear there’s a sinkhole somewhere or a Bermuda triangle that consumes my waking hours without receipt or acknowledgement. With our big show around the corner the calendar is marked by the first anniversary of me owning my first brand new motorcycle. So of course it’s been fully customised and I’ve rack-up 17,346 glorious miles of adventure.
Have I bollox!
Straight after the XSR 700 launch in 2015 I was hounding Yamaha for a good deal on one - see original review here. At last year’s Bike Shed London show my prize was rolled off the truck and I began to imagine how good summer was going to be, customising and riding one of the best middle weight motorcycles ever made.
Hidden radiators with ducted cooling tracts, handmade aluminium or maybe carbon fuel cell covers and a fancy subframe - I was going to go to town and show these custom builders what a really good XSR looked like. Then I woke up and reality stepped in to shut me up. It’s all well and good fudging around on old shitters but this was a brand new bike and deserved a level of finesse that my diary or short attention span wouldn’t accommodate - a lack of decent workshop facilities provides a valid excuse too.
Bureaucracy also played a pivotal role in shattering my delusions of creative grandeur. As my XSR had been pre-registered abroad as a press vehicle the government agency (VOSA is now DVSA) here in the UK simply couldn’t cope. It was if I’d asked them to give me a numberplate for a North Korean Skud missile launcher. I won’t go into the details as it’d undo progress made in therapy sessions but suffice to say it took 7 months before I could properly own the bike..... more over on www.thebikeshed.cc

    Sometimes I get so confused reading comments that I feel like there is a possibility I have some how been watching a different video then everyone else. Like the guy said a countless amount of times that it’s a kit he got. He did t design it he did t do an amazing job building it the dude didn’t even get to ride the thing before he ended up selling it. But yea totally great looking kit awesome simple understated cool kit. And then takin up a step with the ohlins shocks front and back some sticky nice tires and the great polished Finnish all tied in with the sc it’s so cool

I'm a big guy at 6'1" 220lbs and 900 just seems like it's more up my ally. I've been riding sport bikes for the last 10+ years and I think it's time for a slight change.

    0:44 Does anyone make a frame that you can bolt there thats completely flat horizontally, so one can put a bench seat? Because if someone can give me website or details if someone does, then im going to unbolt that back park like u see in this video and put a flat frame part if someone makes and sales and im put a bench seat and that bike is mine

    I've seen guys at 6ft tall ride these bikes (dutch). It's also about how log your back is. Definitley go to a dealer and sit on a standard one.

    P. Fabiano I'm 193cm and find it very comfortable. The seat is quite high and long so you can position yourself further back.
