Love the new mirrors though .

@Ftx not sure I like those bars....but I will not say anything other than as long as you like it that is all that matters....I have seen a number of XV1000 / XV1100 turned into bobbers and cafe's and it can be done. Once you start down that road.....Steering (rake will need to be steeper?) seat. weight, etc all comes in for a change....Great engines in the jap twins too. Watch out for the BT1100 though.....Yamahas version of a sports bike with the XV1100 motor in it...big, not a lot of power and looks good....Interesting to look at but I would not buy one...
