I went back Friday evening and chatted a bit and looked it over some more. It turns out it is an '81 750 not the 920. It has it's sidecovers off and I thought...
I had an 82 750 that I loved and had restored but I wanted more power so I bought my 86 1100 (Both are at Viragotech.com, Mike Hall). Loved/Love both bikes. I...
Hey Jerry, Talk to me brother.Tell me about your 920.Where are you located? I've been riding mine since new and I don't ever recalling seeing another on the...
Mike- what kind of gas mileage did you get out of your XV750? I think the one I'm lookin' at is an '82. It's black and has a shield and an after market seat,...
If I remember right I got around 40-45 mpg. Originally I put Jardine slashcut slip-on pipes on and put a jet kit in and rebuilt the Hitachi carbs and that made...
Seems as though 45mpg is the best I can do these days with the XV1100 and that's solo and taking it easy on the go-handle. Been doing more 2-up (my wife's...
I have an 1981 750 shaft drive and the best mileage that I have got is 50.I have run it out of gas doing that but it won't happen again(too much crud in the...
Yeah, one of the nice things about the XV1000/1100 is it has the sub- tank through which all the fuel feeds, so there's nowhere for anything to sit (dirt,...

Where I can locate the fairing on the Virago on the home page? Either that or would the owner of that photo/bike drop me an email letting me know where he got...
The deal is complete, tomorrow I truck it home. Still haven't found a scratch on it, 26k, leather bags, new front tire not even mounted yet, known needs,...
I haven't laid wrench to it yet and already have two questions for those who know their way around the first Viragos made. Rather than remove the tank and tip...
Frank, I'm trying to remember, but do the bushings that the bars mount to have rubber inside them to help dampen any vibrations? The bars on my 1100 flex a...
