left hand clutch lever to clutch is failing. gear box dry. gear selector damaged. buy it like this or out of the blue it happens now. if clutch is bad one can jiggle any bike in to any gear. ,key off. jiggle means move bike forward an back a tiny bit. and it shifts./ check and test the clutch first. the clutch must work first or all key on tests can be super dangerous. google how to test any motorcycle clutch. end to end. test. hand lever to clutch actual.

Shocks

Just measure the distance (eye hole to eye hole centerline), measure the mounting hole/stud size, then approximate the overall weight and order some for an aftermarket co.

Header pipe on my xv535 yamaha glowing red hot

Do not run this engine any more!!.. Is the exhaust stopped up? This is the first thing I would check, Remove the exhaust - you should be able to use your mouth to blow from the engine side and feel the pressure out the back.- birds, rats, cats, etc. can be in there! Has this engine been locked up (flooded with fuel, flooded with water?.. and then tried to be started?? If so the the cylinder exhaust that gets red hot MIGHT have a bent connecting rod!! I saw this happen on a racing ATV once,,it flooded, they tried to pull start it.. once it cleaned out and ran - the exhaust got RED hot.. -- Bent con-rod!!

What causes it to miss and backfire on one cylinder?

Did a professional shop "rebuild" the carbs? If not, take the bike to a professional and tell them what you did or had done! They will fix it!

Quits running 1996 Yamaha XV 1100 Virago

Make sure the fuel system is properly vented (gas cap, carburetors) Make sure the petcock will freely flow fuel, If this is a vacuum system, make sure you do not have any vacuum leaks!! The carbs sound like they need a good professional clearing, setting, and synchronizing!!
