    Hot Starting Problems

    in The Bar

    Hi guys...

    I have a Virago 535....Starts really well when she's cold ( almost immediately)...but if I try and start it when she's hot....she'll turn over and not fire...wearing the battery down!

    If I have waited a few mins tp cool a bit it seems OK again...

    I am a bit concerned, in case I stall it at lights or summat !!!

    Any ideas?

    Cheers

    Virago 535 Service Costs?

    in The Bar

    Posted

    Hi Folks...

    As a fairly newbie sort of returned rider, with little or no mechanical skill, I was wondering about potential service costs on my 1994 Virago 535...

    I plan to take a short trip to France in June with a mate, and although my bike seems to run pretty well, I thought maybe I should get it serviced before I go....having said that, it had a service (oil/plugs /filter etc) just before I bought it 18 months ago, and I have only done about 500 miles on it since!!!!

    Any ideas of the sort of costs I could expect, also what sort of work should be carried out???

    Apologies for my ignorance!!! :eusa_doh:

    Cheers.

    Hi Folks

    After 40 odd years of not riding, about 18 months ago I bought myself a virago go 535.

    Although I don't do many miles on it I love riding it.

    I'm now 61 and I wonder why I waited so long to get a bike again.

    I went out for a ride today about 50 miles round trip in the winter sun, there really is nothing like it.

    Look forward to enjoying your company on this forum.

    Cheers
