SOURCE: removing starter motor

hello.
those are the only fasteners that hold the starter into place. however. on the other side of the starter there is a sealing o-ring. after time this o-ring likes to hold the stater in its place. so with so very light prying the starter should slip out. hope this helps.

If it is possible to start at all. Fresh fuel fresh engine oil good battery. You may have the following problems; Corroded and blocked carburetor fuel system, bad wire connections piston ring set up.... I hope it was kept indoors and the fuel was drained out before it was left sitting. Good luck, they are nice bikes.

SOURCE: 94 yamaha 535 virago sounds fine, just wont start

Check to make sure your getting gas by pulling off the hose, if no gas comes out your petcock is clogged. If this is the case blow air up into the hose, and if gas comes out now your tank has to be cleaned out.

SOURCE: i was riding my 95' virago 535 when the bike

If pulling in the clutch allows the rear wheel to roll, then we know the problem is not in the final drive or the transmission countershaft. What we still don't know is if it is the engine (crank, pistons, cams) or main shaft in the transmission. At this point, I suggest taking out both spark plugs, removing the PLUG, STRAIGHT SCREW from the left side of the crankcase, then put a socket on the nut you see inside there and rotate the crankshaft counter clockwise. When you hit the spots where the cams are trying to lift the valves, you will feel resistance, but, it should still turn. If it does not turn, something has seized, either the crank or pistons, possibly the cams, but that is not good, and can be expensive to repair.

Starter is spinning but bike is not starting. sounds like it may be slipping.

The one way clutch in the motor grabs a gear with a smooth cylinder sticking out of the side of it. The smooth surface of the gear is now chattered and the one way clutch will not grab it. You will have to replace the large gear and possibly the one way clutch. The one way clutch should be located under the left crankcase cover bolted to the to the flywheel . The starter gear that probably is most of the problem is inserted into the starter clutch between the flywheel and the crankshaft/crankcase. You will have to pull the flywheel to do a proper inspection.

Yamaha virago 535 turn ignition on neutral light is flashing and there is a clicking noise coming from the electrical system bike wont start

These are known for starter problems... The clicking you hear is the relay but the bendix is locked up put it in about 3rd gear and rock it hard forward and back. Bendix may release. Make sure battery is good. As I said before these bike are well known for their starter problem and even after having it fixed by a dealer problem seems to show back up after a very short time. Good Luck!
