The Yamaha XV950 ‘Ultra’ Yard Built Special is a definitely different take on the Yamaha XV950 by Swiss company GS Mashin. Builder Tom Mosimann has created this radical change without any cutting or welding to the frame, as required for a Yard Built special.

29 Custom Harley-Davidsons
We love all motorcycles, scooters, and mopeds at Rescogs. Whatever it is, if it’s got two wheels and an engine, we’ll feature it. Or even an electric motor.
