Yamaha Virago description

1985 Yamaha Virgo XV700N  16,800K miles. 700 ci. V-Twin.  
I am the original owner, I purchased the Virago brand new in 1987 as a crate bike from a local Yamaha Dealer that went out of business in 1987
Garaged all of its life, this bike has Jardine Exhaust pipes, Yamaha chrome engine guards and the backrest installed as the only options, otherwise all stock.
2 Recent new Metzler performance tires, recent battery.  Mechanically in great shape, normal wear and tear, chrome and engine in good shape.
Imported Headlamp Hella 55/100w high beam really lights up the night. All lights, switches, horn etc work fine.  I have 2 or 3 keys with the bike also.
Bike also has a brand new starter solenoid installed and the starter was upgraded to the new style. 
Oil and filter just changed during this posting in July with Kendall Racing 20w-50 oil.
Bike runs great, has never been taken apart, all original condition, I always run 93 octane fuel since day one.
I have the original pipes that have been kept in storage since I changed them in 1987. 
Owners manual, tool pack, receipts and brochures included, also a service manual. 
Believe it or not the original Yuasa battery lasted me 20 years before I had to change it.


I prefer local pickup, I can help crate the bike if necessary, additional fees to crate and ship apply !

Filling a void with an RD350LC

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Last winter I managed to fill a void in my life when I stumbled on a very reasonably priced Yamaha RD350LC.  It was a tad scruffy, had the wrong exhausts but most importantly it was blue and white with all numbers matching.  I had the usual euphoria when the deal was done but I underestimated how much pleasure this particular purchase would continue to deliver another eight months down the line. The difference with this old bike is, instead of just taking it for the occasional ride I was talked into doing a full nut and bolt restoration.  Having never taking a bike apart completely before, initially it was quite daunting but I soon found the RD is easy to work on so it turned into a truly satisfying experience.  I’ve had some help from LC enthusiasts with the rebuild, however, the stripping, sourcing and organising was a total labour of love.  And call me sad but it has made me bond with this bike like no other which only adds to the feel good factor.  The bike cost £1800 and I’ve spent around £1000 but I reckon my mint Elsie is now worth a fair bit more.   I fancy rejuvenating a Fizzy  next time but there’s lots of other cheap 70’s and 80’s winter projects  out there so why not have a go yourself?
