Descrição
1996 Yamaha Virago XV535S, 535cc. Registration number N569 EKH. Frame number 2YL-166184. Engine number 2YL-166184.
The XV535 Virago is where Yamaha started giving Harley-Davidson a run for their money: it was the first of their cruiser motorcycles and it certainly lasted well. It is unique in being one of the few smaller cruiser-style motorcycles available with a shaft drive instead of a chain or belt final drive system, as well as a V-twin engine of that size. Its heavily chromed body styling is also distinctive. The model was discontinued in 2003 the "star" range of motorcycles form took over as the cruiser line from Yamaha. The V-Star 650 (known as the DragStar) would be seen as the successor to the XV535.
EKH was sold by Fiveways Motorcycle Centre on the 27th December 1995 to Carol Mansell of Brough, who passed it onto Trevor Darley of Londesborough in 2011 and then Gordon Hatfield in 2012. It has MOT history from 2000 at 6, 605 miles and 2001 at 7, 133. When Gordon bought it was at 7, 209 miles. SORNed until 2022 it has recently been recommissioned and just passed its MOT at 7, 213 miles.
This very low mileage example presents very well and rides as well as it looks.
Sold with the V5C, June 2022 MOT, two keys, old MOT's and various paperwork including a manual.
