Budget Bobber Build #20 | Short Arm Mirrors, Horn and Side Cover Belt for Virago XV250

[@BigBadWolfMoto]

Gilby is looking more and more retro with every video! The belt was a cool touch! Great job!!!

[@iRidetas]

+BigBadWolfMoto thanks brother really appreciate the vote of confidence! Im really happy with how its going! Cheers!

[@RM2k3-GRP]

It might sound stupid, but that side cover belt, combined with the "rusty" look of the cover, and the rough military bag on the other side makes the whole bike look total badass! it looks like some kind of "lone survivor" bike, something you could ride across the wasteland in a post-apocaliptic scenario... really cool, man! :)

[@iRidetas]

+Ghost Rider Production lol a walk8ng dead style thing is happening in my head now! Haha thats cool thanks 😁

[@billmeloche4918]

Thank you for taking the time...great videos!

[@iRidetas]

Glad you like them!

[@WennbergTV]

YOU MY FRIEND, is the reason I’m still interested in making my own bobber build. Thanks for being.. bloody amazing. Love from Sweden!

[@iRidetas]

+Wennberg Thanks man. Best comment ive had mate. Thanks for such positive words. Good luck with your built. Home built is best! 😈

[@TheLuizguedes]

Same here

[@iRidetas]

Thanks L G

[@TheLuizguedes]

iRidetas Just one question, the seat looks to high, for my opinion, do you like that way? Great project, i really need a garage xD. Good Luck friend

[@iRidetas]

+L G yup thats the look i was going for. On my xvs1100 was after a lower sprung look so went the torsion springs and that looks lower! Thanks. A garage helps but nothing here has been done with complex tools and coukdnt bd done in a driveway! Cheers mate thank you!

[@RidinCountry]

Beep! Lol, works good! Ya, leave the belt for sure! Gilby looks bad ass man!! Very retro!! 👍👍✌️

[@iRidetas]

+Ridin' Country I was stoked with thd belt did the job and looked cool! Sadly he is not far from done!!

[@iRidetas]

+Ridin' Country on rewatching it its not the most manly of sounding beeps is it 😔

[@Viper6-MotoVlogger]

Those mirrors looks pretty good! You’re doing a great job on the bike make.

[@iRidetas]

+vac0002 Thank you sir. Its been so much fun. Gilby coming to conclusion shortly. Pick up the next project last week! 😉

[@MeBirdAdventures]

Looking great bro 🏍

[@iRidetas]

+Dean Sutton Thanks man! 😁

[@azdesertdog]

Coming along very nicely. I like the belt. I would leave that on even if you get the grommet.

[@iRidetas]

+azdesertdog haha think the grommet is long gone so im glad people are giving the belts the thumbs up!! Thanks for the kind words! 😁

[@volgnit]

Looking good mate. I really like the belt. How's your OCD with those holes in top of the rear guard. Ha ha ha !!!

[@iRidetas]

Volgnit lol not great. Tried covering them but looked worse!!! 😜

[@Doticaster]

Sweet man. Yeh dude, gotta sort that symmetry out, lol. Tcrs fella ✊

[@iRidetas]

+Doticaster haha tell me about it!!! 😜 cant handle it!! Cheers my friend!

[@BikerBits]

Great stuff mate... absolutely love the belt idea!! :-)

[@iRidetas]

+Biker Bits Thanks Mark. That stupid grommet kept droping out so had to do something. Think this fits nicely!

[@FatBoy740]

Am into those short mirrors mate 👍. That horn looks like a horn old style much better 👍. The belt actually looks pretty cool , that’s definitely one of those things that you say ... hey that actually looks cool 👌 .. Nice one mate 👍👍🍺🥃👊

[@iRidetas]

+FatBoy740 lol the belts were a suprise success. Thought people would thumbs down them!! It was a number of smaller changes that together add to the retro look. Thanks again for the support! 😁

[@FatBoy740]

iRidetas if you had told me about the belts and I had not seen them I would have been a bit dubious mate BUT I Actually quite like em 😎👌👍👍🍺🥃👊

[@iRidetas]

+FatBoy740 Thanks 😁

[@FatBoy740]

iRidetas 😀👌👍👍🍺🥃👊

[@billmeloche4918]

Thanks for the info:)

[@iRidetas]

No problem!

[@02bigkev]

great work, looks good.

[@iRidetas]

+02bigkev Thanks nearly there now!

[@OldManTony]

The mirrors look great, but can you actually see anything behind you hahahah!

[@iRidetas]

+OldManTony left you can see perfectly. Right you pull i your elbow and bada bing you can see! 😁

[@TriumphRascal]

OldManTony Good point, I'd rather have longer stems and see behind me. Each to their own, but safety comes before looks and I'm not so sure about his mod!

[@mantjesmachines5420]

are you going to the 2018 north west tasmania motorcycle show

[@iRidetas]

+farmallboy696 Mantje Yes for sure!

[@eganbradshaw4739]

With guilby?

[@spokes1355]

I made a video to better explain the carb break down. These little bikes are alot of fun to tinker with.

[@mantjesmachines5420]

iRidetas yeah mate

[@iRidetas]

+Egan Bradshaw yep

[@MA-159]

Can you add a fuel gauge and rpm gauge ??

[@iRidetas]

You could put an external fuel guage down the side of the tank of clear hose and bungs welded on. Rpm guage not sure havent looked into where you would connect it to. Google it mate!

[@PrecisionBodyworks]

is the small air filter a breather attached to the y-boot?
