How do you know it's bad
Can you please share the OEM parts numbers that you used? Thank you so much!
Might be reall helpful to adjuist the valves.. Thanks!
Looks great
Helpful. Thank you
Tires are made from oil…great vid thank you
Whoa I thought we’d see the demo of removal
Awsome work. I love that filter. I might do the same on mine. Thanks heaps for making these mod videos for the xv 250. Helps so much. Ypu should do another xv 250 project. So cool. We need more videos on this bike. Good job brother 👍🏻
Looks good!
Video begins at 7:40
Removed all together. I just use the key. Because the “red” switch is the emergency shut off. Not to turn off motorcycles every cycle.
Thank you - loved it
is it me or did he skip the who reinstall process? Like I was waiting to see what hoses hook to what on the carb and then it just cuts to it being all installed
I knew instantly you were going to paint those spokes a bit with that spray. Why don’t you cover the entire inner part with like a plastic bag or something
I have to try this now
Thanks for the video. Mine is cranking but not starting. The fuel pump is not making any sound. There is no power to clutch wire, side stand wire and fuel pump wire.
Looks great. Good job.
Love it!
It will be an excellent seat for those with a cast iron ass
👍
nice job it will help me.
I’m sure I have some insects and water in my fuel tank, since I left the cap off for a few days. Mine is a diesel F3000 though.
Great video, do you recall the part number for the brackets?
A coworker had a pretty bad injury and was out of action for an entire riding season. His VLX600 was the least of his worries so it sat in his garage for over a year with old gas. He’s thinking of just getting rid of it cheap so I was wondering how much trouble would it be to get it back into riding condition?
I'm gonna give it a shot!
I’ve always wanted a Night Train. I like the way they look and the way name Night Train rolls off the tongue. One day maybe. Just too many softails in the garage already. I think you scored!
Thank you!!
You are a saint. Thank you for sharing this and saving many people many hours of frustration. :) I may be one of them lol. My bike wouldn't start this morning, had to drive the truck to work. I didn't get far into testing but first thing I checked is the battery and it's good. I suspect this is the issue because of how it happened, I was turning over then stopped. In hindsight, my ignition has been acting kind of finicky, sometimes working and sometimes not and cutting out. I'm looking forward to trying this today when I get home!
Mine is not that issue...I'm still not sure. Safety Cutoff Relay and starter solenoid Relay are ordered. I guess I'll know in a few days.
There is an extension bracket for the headlight that moves the headlight out so it fits without a gap.
Why dont you use end caps?
hello I am a huge fan of your channel and I was enquiring out of respect from you am I able to replicate 90% of your ideas from your virago 250 build and apply them to my own virago build. that I am currently building
Great Job Thanks 😊

@3:05 could be something to do with disc brake? Nice to see your dog a year later looking good and checking what youre up to. 😂

Hey man I have questions
Do you have the link to the OEM kit?
Thank you really helped with diode install on the virago
I'm thinking about putting these on my 01 Deuce. Still riding with the stock drag bar set up, im 5'10" and im bent forward and down some, so, this setup you did looks like itll work fine for me as well
Note . The carb take it apart again, remove every jet and clean with carb cleaner and small wires and blow out . and also put in new gaskets. check the automatic choke and replace fuel filter. allso check the valve clearences at top dead center . Have a good day
How’d you get exhaust to sound like that?
You should do 50_60mph on the flats, big hills it will bog to 45 14:53
man I love that dog ....I had one looked almost exactly the same. She was the best dog I have ever had.
Brother , this just happened to me earlier ! I’m gonna start there ! I hope it’s the same outcome!
should have cleaned it with acetone first
I recommend a smeer of vasceline on those contacts incase water gets in and corrodes them again.
I've always wanted a Virago ever since the early 80's. I'm short and the Virago fits me perfectly! Love the tires! I'd paint the bike red, though. Love the bike anyway! 😍
I bought a 750 in not the best condition for 600 and its now chopped and a bobber. Best purchase iv ever made
This is exactly what I needed to do to my bike thank u
Dude yeahhh!! Thanks for the video! Looks great.
My 07 1100 did this ended up being the fuse block.i had no power at all pressed down on block had power rode it for a day then lost power coming home .it stayed running not good but made it home.
