I have a 2001 Yamaha Virago xv250 all stock your video is by far the first budget custom build that I've seen online simple easy and just by watching your video fill a lot comfortable working on my bike I'm no mechanic so I really appreciate this video and big things to you so right now I'm taking a step by step actually want to order that that aftermarket air filter that you're putting on the bike I looked around online and couldn't find anything that comes in a bundle they're just selling it separate piece by piece I got the 44mm filter figure out but couldn't find that other part to put on the hose

Any idea what to do? Could I just remove the whole thing..? I've seen other 1100 Viragos without this pod but don't know what they've done with the valve... Thanks for any help dude 🙏

I bought a pod filter with a 90 degree elbow I plan to drill a hole in the side of the elbow and thread a hose barb to plug the vent line into instead of a separate filter. Do you see any problems with that setup? A crank case vent will make vapors so having that burned instead of vented near my leg sounds better and is closer to stock operation

hey brother, another great video! quick question, (and i looked through all the comments to avoid asking a question that 20 people may have already asked you to save you some headache, lol) but i noticed you have an in line fuel filter right there next to the fuel pump, i also grabbed one of these but i can't figure out which line/hose to connect it too. Could you possibly let me know where i should install mine, please? We have the same bike, but mine is a 2005 (CA model-_-) oh yeah, also when i take the left pod/bug eye off, there's this big black air-box(?) Under the pod with 2 big vacuum(?) hoses that run towards/in the bugeye/pod, so I'm a little unsure how i would take the pod off and keep it looking clean like yours does, are these 2 bigger size lines and black air-box thing necessary or can i delete them or if need be just re-route them somewhere? i know i read in a comment on here somewhere that you said that for the CA model like mine that its extra emissions stuff but is it necessary for the bike to run or can i just ditch is per say haha. thanks for your help, good sir!! wait on second look, did you get rid of the fuel pump?! i dont even see it ??

From my experience its the crakcase breather exiting into the airbox (the frame) to be recirculated back through the engine to meet emmissions but it builds up in the frame and can drain out if you remove certain bolts. It also can build up if you use ether starting fluid etc. To prevent maybe not over fill the oil filler i suppose

Hey mate Just got a set of these pod filters from Bad Boy Bobbers for my XV250. What would you recommend in terms of waterproofing them? As I may ride in the rain sometime. Cheers

Altin Wood thanks for the kind words. How much to adjust carbs will be individual to your bike and year and how much its been played with before you bought it. Mine had to be wound out to 3 1/2 turns but im not fully happy with it. Needs another ride and tune!

eyo, great vid. would love to do the same but germany and its fckn laws about modifying your bike. removing the pods, open airfilter and drilling holes would be soo good because im only 17 (student, not much money :P) and have my old 99 virago but cant really afford the parts that are allowed on your bike because they are like around 150 bucks more than normal parts (in germany the parts have to be approved by the state as okay to safely put on your bike) and drilling holes in something is certainly not approved lol but anyway like to see you progressing, cheers
