    Starter Noise

    Dan Westlake posted a topic in Yamaha Workshop
    My wife is in the process of buying a 2004 Virago 250 with about 24000 kms (1500 mi) on it and I noticed when we were checking the bike out the the bike starts fine but there is quite a rattle sound from starter which stops as soon as you release the starter button. The owner said they inquired with the mechanic and he said it wasn't unusual. I know the early Viragos had starter issues but this isn't a early Virago. I have owned and currently own two other bikes and none of them make any unusual sounds when the started is ingaged. Thanks Dan
