Featured Builds

Virago XV

The Virago XV is a ground-up reinterpretation of Yamaha’s 1982 XV920, where classic architecture meets modern engineering. Its signature monocoque frame remains at the core, now paired with R1 inverted forks, a Hagon monoshock, and custom CNC-laced spoked wheels for sharp, responsive handling.The engine has been rebuilt with BT1100 internals, cutting rotating mass by 30% and increasing stroke for stronger torque delivery. Mikuni VM38 carbs and a custom equal-length 2-1 exhaust bring raw character and performance to life. Stopping power comes from twin 6-pot calipers and 320mm Brembo Oro discs—serious hardware for a serious machine.Fully upgraded with Motogadget electronics and LED lighting, this build delivers a clean, modern edge while staying true to its café racer DNA. Timeless, aggressive, and engineered to stand apart—now registered as a historic vehicle.

Desmo Corridore Caffè

Based on the first-generation Ducati Multistrada, the Pit Lane Moto CR.02.26 “Desmo Corridore Caffè” reinterprets one of Ducati’s most polarising designs. Beneath its unconventional styling, the original Multistrada hid serious sporting DNA — a lightweight trellis frame, Öhlins suspension, and air-cooled Desmo twin.This build strips the concept back to its essence and reframes it as a modern-retro café racer, inspired by classic Italian design and underpinned by contemporary engineering. The frame, engine, suspension, swingarm and wheels are retained from a 2005 Multistrada 1000S DS, preserving its performance and handling pedigree.A heavily modified rear subframe supports a hand-formed metal cowl, while a Ducati 749 fuel tank has been re-engineered to accept the Multistrada fuel pump. Fully custom seat, air intake and exhaust systems, Motogadget electronics and a Koso LED headlight complete the build.Desmo Corridore Caffè represents Pit Lane Moto’s vision of what a modern classic Italian café racer should be — timeless in form, engineered for the road, and unmistakably Ducati.
