Moto Adonis's XV750 café racer, isn't this a perfect example of Dutch subtraction aesthetic? That sensibility of finding beauty within practicality really shows through in the chassis. I love how they turned a V-twin's plainness into such a refined mood. A café racer built out even down to its atmosphere makes you want to stare at it forever.

Wasn't the XV750 kind of the original model for Yamaha's vertical-twin cruisers?

Yeah, it's one of the historically significant models in the Virago lineage.

A bit lacking that the article doesn't give the concrete displacement or the weight difference after the custom build.

For a V-twin café racer like this it seems to have a different kind of nimbleness compared to Harley-based customs.

The phrase 'finding beauty in the practical' makes me a bit curious whether ride comfort ends up getting sacrificed.

An XV750-based café racer feels rare, seems like it'd make good use of that V-twin pulse.

Moto Adonis's XV750 café racer, has that refined presence that feels very Dutch.

I get it, that style of impressing through quality over flash feels very Dutch.
