Classic meets modern: Yamaha Virago Scrambler by Greg Hageman

Classic meets modern: Yamaha Virago Scrambler by Greg Hageman

Built for a costumer who wanted a classic scrambler that would perform well and would be super reliable, Greg Hageman’s Virago Scrambler has a 1982 Yamaha XV920 frame, but the running gear is taken from a 1998 XV1100 model.  The result is a classic-looking machine with modern reliability, provided by an overhauled engine and suspension, a sleek exhaust system made in-house with Cone Engineering “Quiet core” mufflers, a single drilled disc rotor up front, Yamaha drum at the rear, and Kenda dual sports tires covering the excel alloy rims.  A beautiful Benelli tank, along with shiny fenders (yes, fenders – essential bits that many modern custom bikes lack), and a comfortable seat, complete the clean, utterly practical build.
