@@juryc9042 thx yeah I just need to figure my carb problem out. Back cylinder doesn’t fire at idle and is rich but above that it’s OK. Need to mess with the floats some more I think
Managed to sneak about 20 "anyway's" in the vid 😋 hope this helps anyone out there lookin for a good virago clutch video. Good luck weekend warriors. See you on the streets.
I know it's an old video. I'm into sport bikes and I just purchased one of this virago and the clutch it's all the way out there before starts pulling... Its that normal on this bikes?
Btw thanks. I hv the same bike and is bogging down. Thpught it might b fuel filter/sparkplugs....changed those....then friend said it was prob clutch plates....ugh!!!!!
I agree, Not my preferred choice but restoring it isnt in the budget or need. Hard to see in the video but most of the chrome on the crankcase was bubbled and in bad shape. Keeping this old bike running and reliable is though, still running today. Just passed 60k miles on it.
Thanks! I need to do this repair. Looks straight forward. Thanks for the video!
No problem. These Viragos run forever with a little elbow grease and some love. 💪💪 Happy wrenching..

Never go in dry. Great life advice. Thanks for the video

Helpful... I have been restoring a 1985 Virago 1000 and have it running well, but slippage at times. May replace the clutch to see if it helps
"That's a hammer, incase you bust your knuckle and you want to throw it."
lmfao I gotta start doing this when I work on the bike.
Hey mate could you put a link to where you bought the new clutch plates and springs
Spring Kit CSK14 from EBC
Friction Plate Kit CK2274 from EBC
Is what I saw in the video. little delayed but hopefully helpful.
I hurt myself going in dry one time.
Never again...

Adjust the clutch cable tensioner nuts. Near the lever. Maybe check the length of the clutch cable as well.
