XV250 Key Features<br />

1 Good things come in small packages, and never<br />

was this better exemplifi ed than with the Virago, which<br />

remains some of the hottest property among entry<br />

level cruiser buyers.<br />

2 With a long, 66mm stroke, Virago’s air-cooled,<br />

that boasts plenty of bottom-end and smooth roll-on<br />

power, as well as the legs to comfortably attain<br />

highway speed.<br />

position, and the classic, richly chromed, dual<br />

exhausts look as good as they sound.<br />

4 Relaxed cockpit layout includes forward-mounted<br />

footpegs and high handlebars. A plush, yet compact<br />

rear cushion means you can share your Virago<br />

experience with a signifi cant other, all in relaxed<br />

comfort and style.<br />

5 Plush telescopic front fork with 140mm travel gives<br />

a smooth, comfortable ride while enhancing road<br />

holding.<br />

Timelessly styled bodywork abounds on the Virago.<br />

maintenance and helps extend engine life.<br />

great handling and manoeuvrability.<br />

spring preload for load variation.<br />

for a quality “big bike” fi nish.<br />
