2007 Yamaha Virago 250 Review
Yamaha XV250 Virago Bike Overview
If you're looking to purchase your first ever cruiser then the XV250 Virago could be the perfect starting point. Although it's only a 250cc, you won't feel like you're missing out on any of the action.
Taking the true cruiser style with a low seat (685mm!!), high set bars and forward facing pegs, the XV250 Virago handles perfectly and it's extremely comfortable too. There is enough room to carry a pillion however the seat isn't very comfy so it's not ideal for long journeys.
Not only is the machine mechanically sound, with an air-cooled V-Twin engine but also the build quality is well put together too, especially if you love a good mixture of chrome and paintwork – you'll always need to give it a good polish though!
Although the bike was released back in 1995, it's still a popular machine but it can be rare to find one in mint condition still.

Owner Reviews
Annette 5 out of 5 stars
Pros
I love it! Low enough for my short legs to reach the ground, light enough for me to pick up if I drop it and plenty fast enough for me! I am not an experienced rider having just passed my test threes years ago, and I am coming up a bit in years now, but this bike suits me perfectly. I managed a ten day tour of Scotland and Ireland on it with no problems. I would thoroughly recommend it to a short-arsed, elderly, female, inexperienced riders like me and anyone else that wants a decent, easy bike to ride.
Cons
Luggage - not a lot of space to put panniers, but with a bit of a modification it can carry my tent, all my sleeping gear and my clothes - so I'm happy!
