Re: What alternative wheels can fit [INFO.]
And what about swingarm clearance?

Re: What alternative wheels can fit [INFO.]
jkraft,
The light just went on. You are correct!
In 1984 is when Yamaha started the second generation of Virago's and went to the 15" rear wheel:

Re: What alternative wheels can fit [INFO.]
I thought the ebay links you sent were for 16" XV700 wheels, my bad. I have an 82 XV750 with the swirl wheels and want to put spoked wheels on it. I guess I'll get the 15" XV535 wheels and change the rim. Thanks again. ============ jkraft, XV700's are 16" Spoke rear wheels. So are your '82 XV750's ...

Re: What alternative wheels can fit [INFO.]
Thanks, I really appreciate the help. If you look closely at the first one, it has a 15" tire. ============ jkraft, Which bike are you addressing this question? If you are talking about the XV535. Yup, that is what I am telling you. XV535's come with 15" Rear wheel and tire. The tire is also a diff...

Re: 86 1100 another front not firing (North Carolina)
plutful0, Any time a motorcycle is modified from its original design, is when problems begin. Especially, when carburetion or Exhaust were modified.

I see them listed on ebay for the xv535, will that fit the xv750? ============ XV535's have 15" rear spoke wheel Where the '82 750 and '84 XV700 have 16" rear wheel. '84 XV700 offered both Spoke and Alloy 16" rear wheels. 2 choices below. XV700 spoke wheel 42X-25311-00-98: https://www.ebay.com/itm/...

Re: The reserve tank Switch Position (Cairns Australia) (SOLVED)
My reserve switch is not labelled with an on/off marking so I have no idea whether it is on or not. I am beginning to think that it might just be a simple toggle switch and that it doesn't matter if it is to the left or to the right. Does anyone have a switch which is labelled on and off? =========...

Re: What alternative wheels can fit [INFO.]
Putting wire spoked wheels is on my wish list of things I'd like to do to my 82 XV750. The powersportsdiscount.com website shows a 85 XV700 with a spoked rear wheel. Has anyone seen one of these available? ============ Try ebay. I just took a quick dive into ebay. The rear wheel you are after is th...
