Thats awsome reborn. Definately need some pics of the bike! And I know what you mean on the virago not havving enough on the highway. I had a Vstar classic 650, and mind you she was great on acceleration from a stop, but rolling down the road I was not comfortable with how slowly she picked up. Glad to hear you got a new love!!
