1981 Yamaha XS400 Café Racer (SOLD)

1981 Yamaha XS400 Special / Custom Café Racer
When we went to pick-up a second lift for the shop, we saw this bike sitting in the corner of the guy's garage - so, we offered a package deal for the bike and the lift and ... voila, she was back in the shop and on the new lift!  ALL work was done in house at BBR (except for the embroidery on the rear seat pad)  - here are just a few of the highlights:
  • custom fabricated in-house steel tail-piece w/Suzuki VX800 taillight and mini-trun signals
  • adapted rear-sets from a Yamaha FZR600
  • Honda Rebel front fender (Jacks Cycle Salvage)
  • reshaped exhaust system wrapped with heat wrap
  • redesigned/relocated rear shock geometry
  • custom fabricated side covers
  • custom emerald green metallic paint scheme w/white rally stripes on tail-piece, tank and fender
  • rebuilt brake caliper with new pads/shoes
  • new pod filters / rebuilt carburetors with matching 6-Sigma jet-kit sized for new filters and 2 in to 1 baffled exhaust system
  • custom fabricated license plate holder with LED's
  • wrapped clubman bars with alum. bar-end mirror
  • painted frame / wheels / engine
  • all unnecessary tabs cut off frame and ground smooth
The new Owner and her partner have now become friends of the shop - they are both good people for sure!  And another example of how we continue to be blessed through the BBR Shop!!!
