Yamaha XVS 250 Drag star
And for good reason. With an authentic V-twin engine, the Virago will give you the grunt and growl that you don't often find in the lightweight class. It's also got a low 27” seat height for added confidence, perfect for novice riders. One ride and you'll see why so many entry riders have chosen this nimble, confidence-inspiring cruiser. Heavyweight styling. Lightweight packaging. Engine: Long-stroke (49 x 66mm) powerplant is designed for strong low- and mid-range pulling power. Narrow, 60° V-twin provides that 'classic' cruiser engine styling. Convenient electric starting is standard. Single 26mm Mikuni downdraft carburetor with accelerator pump provides crisp throttle response. Transistorized coil ignition ensures fast starts and maximum engine performance. This system is maintenance-free. Automatic cam chain tensioners keep maintenance to a minimum and reduce mechanical engine noise. Smooth-shifting, 5-speed transmission provides versatile performance. Clutch lever pull is very light and novice friendly. Washable, foam air filter reduces tune-up costs. Dual "shorty" mufflers highlight that classic "American" motorcycle look. Chassis/Suspension:
Box-section swingarm with 5-way spring preload adjustable, dual rear shocks provide a comfortable ride and reinforce that cruiser image. Rear travel is 100mm (3.9"). 33mm telescopic front forks provide 140mm (5.5") of smooth, comfortable wheel travel. 282mm drilled front disc brake uses a twin-piston caliper for excellent stopping power and lever feel.
