Im such a traitor

cliftstuff · 06-17-2010, 09:38 AM

Well I guess my Lifan days are behind me. I bought a Yamaha a couple of days ago, an 06 xv250 Virago. Got a really good deal and it only had 1200 miles on it. And as an,,, (ahem),,, :? older person, I think I like the cruiser style better than the sportbike style. Thought about keeping my Lf150-25 but the wife says I have to get rid of all my other toys. Its been a good couple of years, but alas all good things must come to an end.

Did Yamaha-ha ever fix the starter drives on these things?

Virago's are popular bikes I think, hope you have lots of fun with it

Not a traitor at all. The Virago is a fine bike.

You'd have been a traitor if you sold your bike for a downpayment on a used Prius or some such nonsense. 8)

The Virago is a nice bike. If you have time, please post some photos of your new ride.
