Yamaha Virago description

Please note -this is my ultra 
 daily driver
 very reliable, never lets me down, and I ride all the time.  Like any mechanical masterpiece especially with older bikes, occasionally there is an issue.  In the case of this Virago all projects in the present tense are minor (see bottom of listing)

Custom painted and hyper maintained Virago.  Over the winter carbs were cleaned professionally and the petcocks were replaced (very important) (receipts on file)(close to $400 by a master carb man in Cameron NC) and I have spark plugs cleaned every 500 miles at same shop for easy starts (not a guaranttee cause carbs sometimes have their own notion by the way but a true fact)
Tires good, brakes good, tranny shifts as it should, electrics work, horn buzzes,  42 mpg, loud pipes.  
You would be hard pressed to find a finer Virago although one may exist somewhere.  I'd say 'ride anywhere'....
Windshield was scratched on a wall and has a bolt missing but no issues driving.


MPG 
estimate  is my experience not guaranteed

Bag on seat NOT INCLUDED







Please note mirror on rt has been replaced with a very similar mirror.  Rectangular right reflector missing near fork. All in the name of disclosure! Any other issues have been rectified as MC is onan ongoing maintenance regime. Recent new front brake pads, oil and filter change,  new sissy bar bolts.  All electrics work - horn buzzes.

Police Catch Up with Motorcycle Doing 185 mph in YouTube Video

Fri, 20 Apr 2012

Authorities in British Columbia, Canada, have impounded a 2006 Yamaha R1 believed to have starred in a YouTube video reaching speeds of 299 kph (185 mph) on a freeway. The onboard video, embedded after the jump, captures the Yamaha weaving through traffic, and often lane-splitting between other vehicles, covering a 4.67 mile stretch of the Trans-Canada Highway in about a minute and 56 seconds. That translates to an average speed of 144.6 mph.

Yamaha Produces 35th Anniversary Edition SR400 for Japan

Tue, 22 Jan 2013

Yamaha is celebrating the 35th anniversary of its SR series with a special edition model in Japan. Produced in limited numbers, the 35th Anniversary Edition Yamaha SR400 offers an exclusive leaf green metallic color, special badging and, in an unusual gesture, a lower price than the base model. The original SR500 was introduced in 1978 as a street-focused version of the Yamaha XT500.

1.5litre V8 two-stroke

Thu, 21 Apr 2011

I don't know about you but I've yet to ride anything with two wheels and an engine that I didn't enjoy in one form or another. From minimotos to 1800 Goldwings, there's always some fun to be had even if it is just the novel experience that makes you grin. I am not one for a pidgeonhole, that's for sure.
