Yamaha continues to be one of the most popular makes for street tracker builds. Popular donors include the XS650, the Virago series, the single-cylinder SR250/400/500, the SX225 Scorpio so popular in Asian markets, and the long-running XT series of dual-sports. Builders have turned all of these and more into street trackers, many incorporating the company’s “speed block” racing livery.
