03 Virago 250 - starter bike

some customization (mostly removing stickers, bulky reflectors)

Custom Yamaha 650 Star Drag bars cut, sectioned, welded and fitted. eliminates the buckhorn bars that hurt your wrists.

exhaust baffles are drilled for performance, also so you can hear it run around other bikes.

5 year warranty,

will deliver on east coast.

quote:
I rode a 250 Virago and was pretty impressed with it. As an entry level bike I wasn't expecting gobs of power, but it was sufficient. The Œ liter V-Twin produces the coolest sound of the entry-class bikes, and at 5'8"/32" inseam I found the stance quite inviting, compared to the Rebel's "awkward-for-taller-riders footpegs" (which is about the only bad thing I can say of the Reb). I wasn't too keen with the handlebars though, I'd prefer something a bit wider and more forward. Maybe a Rebel-styled bar would make it perfect for me
unqoute

we've changed the bars, FWIW
