Posted May 30, 201212 yr Hello everyone Murf here from Hamilton New Zealand. Kids have left home and I am getting back into riding again. Starting carefully with a 2005 250 Virago, have had it for 2 months and absolutely love it.Going for a weekend cruise and winding through the country roads is awesome. I am already looking around for my next bike. Have fallen rather badly for the XVS 950a. To me it looks like my dream bike, my only concern is the footboard clearance. I am still a few months from a new purchase I want to get a few more thousand Kms on the Virago first. If any 950 riders could set my mind at rest I would hate to settle for another bike because I was to worried about the footboards digging in.Thank you in advance for anyone who can help me out. Will keep you posted on my decision. I will probably only need one person to tell me it will be fine and I will block out all the negative replies. I really want that bike. Cheers MURF
May 30, 201212 yr Hi Murf, Welcome to the YOC, Theres a guy on here ANDYBUC who has one of your dream bikes, he has just posted about a vibration in the floorboards so he might be a good guy to PM and have a chat with. Look for XVS Yamaha floorboard vibration in yamaha customs section.
