    to fix it he would have to spend 150$ on pods instead of the 20$ he spent or put an airbox in it . then play with the jets. doubt if he will do any of that this weekend or next weekend unless he has the parts laying around.... after all it is still priced at a 1000$ after almost 3 weeks.

    high idle just turn the knob;)

    Nope! I’m holding out for a (solar-powered) model!

    Wow... just noticed, that Virago seller gave himself TWO chances to get it right. Down lower, it’s tagged Venture, not Vegas. Huh?!

    For that kind of money, I'd wonder why the crappy grips, and why the cluster 1) has a rusty face; 2) is cock-eyed.
