These Yamaha Viragos last forever and are great V-Twin bikes. Underappreciated bikes that are a pure joy to own and drive.

Can't keep up with this beauties amazing machines non stop anything I knew about bikes since I was a kid. seen them new again is incredible

I had this exact bike in high school and rode it through college. What a blast from the past. Seeing that early computer is pure nostalgia. I loved that bike...got lost to time.

Just bought a 1982 Virago 920 for my first bike. Super excited to start riding it

Time machine.. Very nice.. Virago's vere true love or hate machines, no in betweens here.. Excellent for re- builds.

I have a 1983 Yamaha XV920 Midnight Special with 8990 original miles. Fantastic bike for what it is, my second bike to own!

I've never rode a motorcycle and I'm thinking about a Virago 250 for my first bike. It's interesting to see what one of the old models looked and sounded like. Thanks for showing

Beautiful and well kept bike. The black and gold colors make it look super classy.

Love the videos

My first bike was a black 1982 yamaha Maxim 550. Wish I still had that bike. was a fun little bike!

I'd rather have that Maxim than a Virago.

I had the metallic grey 1982 550 Maxim. I traded it in for the 1984 Virago 700. Wished I'd kept both of those bikes. Great machines even though the Virago had the annoying starter issue.

Well I did a thing! I just won the auction for this Virago 920. $1995 was the winning bid. I feel like it's a good deal. Ken Kaplan seems like a straight shooter so I'm confident I'm getting a good bike. I had a 1984 Virago 700 so I won't be surprised if this bike has a noisy starter.

@@nachodog7766 Brother, you got a bike that was gone over and tip top for $2k. Fantastic price. This isn't a Craigslist bike. This is a Kaplan approved bike! So stoked for you! Edit. Just watched the video again. Fantastic buy. Love those block clusters on 80's bikes! Please keep me(us) posted when you receive it.

Nice shape low mileage . My friend owned one . Fun bikes and reliable . That is a good bike .

Same bike I first learned on today and actually still have it but mine has painted fenders

I love the virago's.

my grad year - another bike I wanted............

Wicked crusin bikes …

Does anyone else that has an early virago have starter issues that the main reason I parked mine
