Yamaha XV250 Service Manual
It’s a genuine legend in cruiser folklore, because Virago has turned more riders on to the
wonderful world of cruising than almost anything else.
And why wouldn’t it, with its light, easy handling, super reliable air-cooled, V-twin
engine pumping out plenty of roll-on torque, and ample top-end thrust for any highway speed limit.
Classic, timeless styling abounds, in the form of dual chrome exhaust pipes, a stylishly
sculpted teardrop tank and hot wire spoked wheels.
* Air-cooled, 249cc, 60° V-twin engine with a long, 66mm stroke
produces plenty of bottom-end torque and smooth roll-on power.
* Widely geared 5- speed transmission makes the most of 250’s powerband.
* 282mm single front disc brake and a rear drum brake provide plenty of stopping power.
* Automatic cam chain tensioner virtually eliminates maintenance and helps extend engine life.
* Beautiful dual chrome exhaust pipes let the engine breathe and put out that classic V-twin rumble.
Pros: Reliable, I've owned my 1991 model for 3 years, and it hasn't put a wheel wrong. Comfort good, but I wouldn't like to be much taller than 1.8m; easy to ride, impeccable road manners for city work; looks like a motorcycle, not a plastic fantastic;, fuel economy good, maintenance economy excellent; low seat height excellent for shorties ( I hate tippy-toeing to stay upright at red-lights)
Cons: needs a sixth gear; I would like a centre stand to make maintenance easier; the pillion seat is a joke, but that doesn;'t matter much to me.
