SOURCE: 1990 Yamaha Virago 535 Parts interchangeable with 2001 virago 250

Sure mirrors, nuts, bolts and screws. Maybe a fender and a bit of other stuff. But for the most part not much will match up and now you have this ugly monster in your garage and your next job is to figure out exactly how you are going to get rid of the da-- thing. Look a bit harder and get a match for your bike. Now you have something worthwhile.

SOURCE: yamaha virago 535 turn ignition on neutral light

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!

SOURCE: how do i get the sub tank off a virago 535 to respray it

Its Ben awhile but if I remember rt. remove the seat turn off the petcock valve and at the neck there is a cover made Of plastic that covers the bolt that goes through the tank mount from side to side. Remove that bolt and the tank will lift up it should have some rubber mounts that require a little tug to get the tank to come off but it's actually very easy don't forget to unhook the fuel lines from the petcock valve before you take it off

1999 yamaha xv 535 when you start the bike there

I have a 94 virago that had that problem last year. First, is your starter switch releasing all the way out? Mine was sticking. Also the regulator-rectifier needed replacing, as it was no longer damping the current, which leads to surges, especially when revved. If you have a manual it will tell you how to check the current running through the bike. Replacing the regulator is cheap and easy even for me with my limited bike knowledge! Hope this helps. Charlie.

WHEN PRESSING IGNITION,OIL LIGHT COMES ON, NOTHING ELSE.

Sounds like the starter relay is bad. Lay a screwdriver across the two poles and see if it starts. If the bike turns over, that's your problem
