heard about this forum from chad and rick so i thought i would just pop in and say hi. been riding my 650 deauville for about 5 years now got 123000 plus miles on her and still going strong. before that i had a virago 535 with custom paint and lots of shiney bits. very loud exhausts, sounded like the 4horsemen of the appocolypse setting off car alarms and dogs wherever i went. thanks to chad i now have a virago frame which i intend to build a chopper on starting next year sometime. by the way chad i still havent recieved the registration docs from the dvla.
