Well, due to a windstorm last night, my bike got blown over and bent one of the bolts for the risers. So, does anyone happen to have a '91 1100 they are...

Just an update. After getting my bike straightened up this morning, noticed there was more to just a bent riser. My battery was messed up from sitting...
... It's the same, except, you bleed the second after the first is done. Second one goes faster because fluid is fresh up to the line splitter. Don't forget to...
Jo now has her 94 750 Virago but it didn't come with a "Owners Manual" so I can set up a "maint. schedule". If anyone has a spare OM that will cover the 94 750...

Hiya! I got my first Virago a couple of weeks ago - my dream bike! I`m very much enjoying the ride to work every day, stress relief or what?!! Looking forward...
What I enjoy even more than the ride to work is the ride home from work. It's nice to be able to hop on a bike after 8 hours on your feet. I'm sure you'll...
Luce- welcome to the group. I got my Virago first, 'cause I wanted to get back into riding after several years away from it. It's only been since I've had the...

Thanks for the info. I guess I'll have something to do at work tonight! One's I've seen are held on using a washer and screw from the inside. Try rotating cap...
Some bastards have pinched my bike. I'm absolutely dumbfounded. Why should anyone go to the trouble to nick a 21 year old machine with about as much...
Derek, You seem stressed :) Seriously, I'd sad for you that some idiots stole your bike. If there is an upside (and I use the term loosely because I would be...
Derek, I can feel your pain. I had a 1941 Harley that I kept chained in a garage. Could barely use it, it was subject to breakdowns, but animals would steal...
I try not to be too materialistic about things. Sometimes you just have to let things go. And it might seem like I was slagging my bike. But I enjoyed helping...
those issues all sound like you were runnin rich and it coulda been fixed, myself I never use choke, I prefer to throttle it until it idles. Someone kicked...

I live in a big city, but bikes like mine are as rare as rockin horse shit. I personally think the tinkers have had it away. Its probably on its way to the...
