Nat, you sound so keen on the Virago I can only put it down to love on the rebound! It's because you know you should not have let the XS650 get away! 🤣🤣🤣
People tune their bikes to do that. Never really understood why. I think that it is there to stay as a result of the baffles being taken out of the exhaust.
Them viragos are nice I was considering one before I bought the Thundercat I’d put some ape bars and a snake skin saddle on it but lovely bike all round will enjoy seeing it worked on
Good luck if you take the carbs off to clean, I'll be doing a Virago 535 complete carb rebuild in the next week, I've sonic cleaned the bodies and now waiting for the new kit to turn up to rebuild them. They are a shit to get off and put back on and they have so many parts to them Yamaha went way over the top.
Hi nat mike here again mate those dragbars look much better than the bars they come with much better bro ;-), but still dont like the 535, 750 or the 1100 virago much better ;-) cheers brother,
Did you ever did into the carbs? If the pipes were straight through the carbs would need jetting! I'm considering one as a first bike as I like the cruisers. I only drive at 60-70 most of the time and have no wish to pretend I'm carl Fogarty like most of the power rangers do! Do you still have the xj900 that was a nice old bus?!
Its looks a little docile Nat, does it feel underpowered or were you just taking it easy. I've never had one so no idea what it should be like. I love its style
@@steveandfamily7248 I will have a closer look later. It might have seemed like under powered as I was taking it really easy early in the morning in a strange bike.
