My auntie has one sitting in the garage and I might be taking it as a first bike for myself. I’m from Italy and here is the perfect fit even for a daily ride but also smaller road-trips between regions and overall I think it’s a cool choice for a first bike. Still think I’m too big for it ( 6’1)… Thanks for the video anyway! 💪🏽

Go for it! It may be a little small, but after you get used to the size its a lot of fun! 😁

Beautiful bike! Everyone loved those Virago motorcycles. Got to have those buckhorn handlebars. 👌

I've owned the 535 and 750 (2nd gen). I've also rode the 1100 and 250. In my opinion 535 is the best virago. sweet spot in both weight and power. maintenance of the 535 (especially carb work) is way easier than in those cursed 750s and 1100s, even if they are bit comfier, especially on long rides and on the highway. 250 is probably the best one to build something out of since it's even lighter still, single carbed and bit more powerful than the 125.> the ones to skip are 125 and 750, since 250 beats the 125 in every regard, as does 1100 beat the 750, unless you want the early 80s 1st gen one, but even then you can get the 920/1000.

Got one from’96 changed the handlebars though, got some who are more like my Triumph T100 (2019) feels way better and even better to handle now. Seating position is among the very best in my opinion. Perfect bike for some back road riding. Great little bike 👍

Bike sounds and look super awesome. I am curious, is it suitable for 2 persons on a long trip?
@NicePantsLance7 ай бұрын
Its capable of carrying 2 people, but it's definitely not suited for long trips. Thank you for watching 🤘

Great little bike. I had one while living in Japan. It was only 400cc for thier domestic market but it was still plenty powerful enough for riding two adults. Ugly as a wet cat but i think thats part of the appeal. The engine was great and the thing just had a cool character overall.

That's awesome! Im sure you got to see a lot of cool motorcycles in Japan 🤟 it may be ugly, but this bike is awesome! Thanks for watching

My Virago 1100 had a dry weight of just under 500 lbs, so this can't weigh more than 400 lbs. My son is going over to A2 licence next year and thinking of buying a 535 to build a bobber.

How long does a full tank usually last for you? I love my virago but feel like he's chugging gas like I do beer.
@NicePantsLance6 ай бұрын
I think he's getting around 80 miles to a tank if he's gentle lol ill ask him next time!
@DaveLowe285 ай бұрын
They notoriously have a small tank. Depending on your riding you'll be lucky to get 100 miles.
