    Sweet. I had a 1990 in 1990 and it was the best bike I have ever owned, wish I still had it.

    I am about 2 tries away from having the very same experience as you do in this video with my 83’ 700 Virago that I just bought in pieces for $200 bucks from a guy. Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge with me so that I didn’t give up on it like I’ve done on other bike rebuilds

    This has been a great project to watch. I’m stocked you got her started. I am getting my grandfathers 89 Virago 750. Your videos are getting me amped up for it lol. I think I’ll have to replace the clutch he said cause it got knocked over. Keep up the great work man.

    The engine sounds good!, definately get the carbs rejetted. But man!, im so happy for u.
    I know exactly how it feels to have it running after a few failed attempts, well mine was more like few days, but yours were weeks!..

    • @TheInja
      @TheInja  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, I'm hoping the carbs are going to be okay, but it was pretty bad in there and some jet heads were stripped. But all the passageways were good so I think the poor running is not a problem inside the carbs.

    @Elvirth24 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    There's a fellow I know who makes a single carb conversion manifold for these bikes. I have one for my 82 750 and oh BOY is it so much easier than trying to drag the stock carbs out from between those jugs. Plus I can run one carb for ease of maintenance without all the syncing bullshit.

    • @Elvirth24
      @Elvirth24 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Gary Tesla Unfortunately shortly after my original comment he decided to take a hiatus from making them, but if you join Virago Nation on facebook and its accompanying sales page, you might be able to grab one eventually. It'll be branded as either Virago Performance or just Adam Smith.

    So this is super late but ice been working on a 1985 xv1000 virago and it also has the Hitachi carbs. On the model i have (not sure if itll be the same for the 1100) a majority of the jets are from factory unable to be removed.

  • @tgerber91
    @tgerber91 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Viragos are known for that grinding. Not enough steady voltage while cranking especially while cold. Add a voltage stabilizer 99% of the time it will cure that. Or you can upgrade coils.

    I just started watching your videos because I currently have a 89 xv1100 my screws are stripped to get my starter off but watching the video it might just be my solenoid or does the starter have to come off to replace the solenoid?

    • @TheInja

      From what I remember, solenoid was separate from the starter. But you can see it in my videos, so check that for sure. :)
