Ross' JVB Moto Custom Yamaha XSR 700

[@travelinben1966]

That’s the best looking and sounding xsr 700 I’ve ever seen!👍

[@maxriddle604]

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

[@wolfharthiphop]

That kit makes the bike look a whole lot better

[@Hraustr]

"the acoustics are a bit rubbish here so it'll prolly sound crap" *BRAAAAAP*

[@caferacerlondon3338]

Sounds amazing

[@jonahmiller1042]

I honestly like tbe bulkiness! It really sets a different look, a bit more urban.

[@JohnConnor12]

Beautiful! I was pleased to see that we will have this bike in the U.S. for 2018. Saw one at the dealer yesterday and it looks much better in person. Still think I prefer the XSR900, but this bike looks great as well.

[@johnroe3915]

dhunley1 I got mine the day it arrived. I dig the xsr900, but opted out for the 58mpg. I still can't believe it took nearly 3 years before it came to the US, the Euros always get the goods.

[@JohnConnor12]

Yeah, I was surprised it took as long as it did. I'm not in the market for a new bike this year, but I think I will pick up an XSR900 next year. 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.

[@adnanchaudhari8636]

Love what you've done to the bike. Great video!

[@BikeShedMotoCo]

Thanks, although JVB deserve the credit, I just fitted the parts. [Ross]

[@Addystiffler]

Ah yes, the magical cnc bending machine

Gorgeous details wow. Can't wait to buy a couple super7 bits for my MT.

@Camilo Moises thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm trying it out atm. Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@OiSchwabe]

I've watched this video 3 times and every time i fall in love. xD Most gorgeous bike i have ever seen. Well done mate!

[@threethrushes]

Very nice. I did a similar job to my XSR, except I had to scrabble around and get all the individual parts myself. Mblaze pins are beautiful!

[@mark.e.p]

Its a great bike standard but what you've added it looks stunning, great work!

[@danilocapellan1316]

Not for nothing, to me it looks like the perfect motorcycle for urban and commute, love it . 👍🏽

[@carla.n.5078]

Thats how it should have looked like from the start!!!

[@1990-t1j]

Impossible.

[@ownyourworld]

Went to the Bike shed for my first time this Sunday love the place nice coffee and friendly staff . Love the Parking , hopefully will be coming down for a Moto gp watch some time with some friends

[@BikeShedMotoCo]

Thanks, glad you made it down and enjoyed the place. This year's MotoGP season will have an even better set-up. It's worth booking in advance if you want a table.

[@Mad-v3d0n]

Thousands of dollars in upgrades. Didn't ride it.......... LOL

[@BikeShedMotoCo]

No, but half the fun is modifying, building and working on new projects. The new owner is enjoying the bike as a daily ride.

[@jonathansinrich2412]

IKR .... the exhaust is about $1000 alone

[@G58]

At last, a bike that’s actually designed. And it’s a yammy! Who knew?

Really nice. Sounds great too.

[@ananeadjei9770]

Can you fix a tail bag to the jvb seat?

[@asanchezc]

beautiful bike!!!, I'll buy it next month...LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT...

[@FunWithAJ]

Beautiful customization just curious how much money you bought the bike for and put into it. Have a feeling by the time you fitted everything you could have just bought a better bike already kitted. I usually budget custom my bike so if/when I upgrade I wont have lost a lot of money.

[@Judgeshred88]

Been on the website and come only the the parts as solo items and not a full kit to order bulk

[@tngchinghwa]

nice custom, i will give it 9/10

[@brucewee2162]

I love what you did with the bike! I purchased this kit recently and I was hoping you could give me some insight on how you mounted the license plate holder underneath the rear fender? You mentioned in your blog that you "bent the mount flat and used a very thin aluminium plate, curved slightly and positioned it below." Would you happen to have any pictures of the rig or could you explain in a bit more detail on how this was accomplished? Thanks you so much Ross!

[@jeronimojulianocarvalhofer4530]

Bruce Wee Hi. Did you manage to fix the licence plate holder just like Ross did? I am trying to do the same in my Xsr. All best

That is a Sexy looking "Yammy"... Subtle but impactful changes with the kit add on the bike really make a big difference..some one will be happy with that purchase for sure. Well done.

Can I ask the total cost of all the added kit? Many thanks in advance

[@sowolfx5795]

I love the original seat but great work with other mods

[@davidfitamant5365]

Good evening I also installed this sc project exhaust. Have you carried out a reprogramming or changed the ecu or relegated the air-fuel ratio? Thank you in advance for your answer

[@sandrocorreia518]

Hi! I would like to ask , the name of lateral parts of the fuel tank, can you tell name and which material' It´s possible to show me images/ pictures about the tail. best regards

[@Ringer1982]

Apart from shorter tail and the headlight it looks the same to me. The shorter tail looks a bit better, but other then that... And where did the mirrors go? You've traded mirrors for the headlight? :D

[@peterroda4181]

Love the colour

[@superkahuna]

The front light is not mounted properly right?

[@danilocapellan1316]

Beautiful beautiful motorcycle. 👍🏻

[@zannpaci]

any idea how to lower the seat height by 2 inches? i dont want to mess with the suspension. one option is to get thinner seat and if necessary, some sub-frame modfication.

[@Bramslootmans]

I have a question; when u do the tailtidy, is it still possible to keep the double seat?

[@michaelhuxter3670]

I'm new to biking and i don't mean to be ignorant. But what makes the JVB taller (raised) than the stock XSR? Fantastic looking bike btw.

[@winsoncheong2025]

The link to your build process isn't working anymore, can you guys fix that please?

Great video and lovely looking bike. Love the front end. Do they deceiver to the UK? And is there a link to the specific headlight shroud? Thanks

Do they have an option to ship the kit to the United States? I don't care if everything is in German, I will translate it all for this kit!

[@ParryBrothers]

wow stunning!

[@dinoligonja5192]

Hi Ross, First of all a lovely bike! I just received my Yamaha together and the Super-7 kit. Could you please give me a link or some guidance for how to paint the parts? Can I paint it right away or should it have some "pre-job" like a scrub with sand-paper, etc? Best Dino

[@BikeShedMotoCo]

Hey Dino, definitely sand and primer the parts first, like you would with regular paint jobs.

[@timinno]

Nice bike! ...what's up with the camera work in this video?

Lovely. Rough ballpark for kit price?

Around £2k in parts. (not inc Suspension and exhaust).

Nearly.... www.kedo.com/products/JVB0037.html €1800 for the full kit. I didn't fit the speedo or risers which saves a bit [Ross]

If your pillion is really slim... and a very close friend... or someone who you'd like to be closer to. Not sure on the pipe but they're fully EC friendly. www.sc-project.com/yamaha_xsr700_e.htm

Hey Ross, I am currently converting my MT-07 into a Super Seven. I kind of fancy the SC Project exhaust over the Arrows exhaust that Jens mounted. Can you give me the name / number of the SC project exhaust?

[@BikeShedMotoCo]

Sure thing, there's a review with links and details here. thebikeshed.cc/sc-project-xsr700-exhaust/ I did like the Arrow but the SC Project is a bit tidier... although he baffle isn't removable.
