88 YAMAHA VIRAGO 1100 - The Budget Bobber Motorcycle Is Finally Reliable! Lets Go For A RIDE!!

[@EvanWells07]

Thanks for checking the video out! Let me know if there is anything you would like to see in the future!

[@Augcliffe]

Congrats brother!

[@EvanWells07]

Thanks!!

[@alexcalmets9633]

I bought a tm42 from mikuni, the single carbs it’s on its way!! So excited

[@EvanWells07]

Nice! I had been debating doing the single carb conversion on mine just to make it all easier to work on.

[@alexcalmets9633]

@@EvanWells07 single carb just showed up today!!!

[@EvanWells07]

@alexcalmets9633 hell yeah! Keep me posted on how it goes.

[@alexcalmets9633]

@@EvanWells07 alright I need more information on how you connected your led front blinkers and how you connected that relay. Both are here I realized my bike gives me black and brown wire for blinkers and the led have yellow red and black. Very new to all this sorry for bothering again

[@EvanWells07]

@alexcalmets9633 it's all just the factory wiring, nothing fancy.

[@SpiritedWrenchers]

Glad you got it out. Just about full blown riding weather now. Keep the rubber side down!

[@EvanWells07]

Thanks! Still a little cold here, but getting there. Hopefully sooner than later!

[@aaronb554]

The shot from the pipe sounds great, especially with that trans whine. I knew you'd whip it into shape!

[@EvanWells07]

Thanks, pal. I really do like the sound, but have been thinking about adding a H pipe for scavenging. Not sure if it will ruin the sound, but may improve the performance.

[@aaronb554]

@EvanWells07 I bet an X or H pipe would tighten the sound and it would RIP. A 2 into 1 might be the trick.

[@EvanWells07]

@@aaronb554 maybe. I made it this way more for the look than anything. A 2 into 1 would be cool too, but again, the look...

[@aaronb554]

@EvanWells07 hey, YOU said you wanted to change it. I just said it sounds good 🤷

[@EvanWells07]

@@aaronb554 I know. I was just saying idk how much I want to change it.

[@matthewnovosedlik3302]

Well it looks like you did it you got to ride it and got it home on it. I think Your fuel oxygen mix screws may be a bit rich ride it till its hot then turn each of the screws counter clock wise 1/4 " at a time and hopefully you can clean those plugs up Im sure that mix gas didnt help things

[@EvanWells07]

Thanks! Yeah after the video I changed jets again and all seems good now. I will still tinker with it more once it gets nice out here. I never thought of the 2 cycle gas playing a part though, good call.

[@Skyodactyl]

How did you get your cylinder heads to looks so well ? Planning on rebuilding mine completely, was there any tips you got ?

[@EvanWells07]

I just cleaned everything up good a while back. I was lucky that they were in good shape to start with. Most of the info I found on these was from Facebook groups. Lots of knowledgeable folks in there! Other than that was some Google searches.

[@Skyodactyl]

@@EvanWells07 well if you ever decide to give her a good deep clean again post a video of it! I'd like to see how u go about it. Great video buddy. Got ya a new sub !

[@EvanWells07]

Thanks I appreciate it! I have some stuff I'd like to do this spring / summer to it, I can add that to the list. May not be a full video, but I can throw some tips and tools kind of stuff in there for the stuff I use.

[@TheBlueBikeDoyle]

Sound good 👍 I would go down one size more

[@EvanWells07]

Once it gets nice out I will be fine tuning it (hopefully for the last time). I did play with it after the video and went down on the jet sizing and it seems much better. Thanks for checking it out!

[@jefflyonnais3311]

Drop the stock Hitachis...install dual TM-38 flatslide carbs

[@Skyodactyl]

Did you build them pipes or order them from somewhere ? Having a hell of a time finding some aftermarket for my xv700

[@EvanWells07]

I built them. Used the stock upper portions of pipe and made the rest out of some scrap I had laying around. I don't think there is much out there for off the shelf exhaust for these.

[@quinton3997]

Is there anything out there to make the swing arm longer

[@EvanWells07]

Not that I know of.

[@MitchellGould-n8d]

What kind of pipe u got on it

[@EvanWells07]

I made them myself. There is a more in depth showing of them on my newest video about the bike. I talk about all the major mods I did to it, and how I did them.
