I finally posted pics in my gallery.

Nahhhh I changed my signature to reflect that I do not have an XJ, so all should be okay. I went back to that Viragotech site and now I see that it is very similar to this one. Of course the people aren't as cool nor is it as well laid out, but it's good. I was on just a part of it that showed the schematics and stuff. I thought that's what the whole site was like. Much better now.

I am leading a ride on Sunday after church. It's about 135.26 miles and includes 5 stops. It's been a few days since I have ridden, so I am looking forward to it.

I keep thinking I am going to invite a few friends over and have a garage clean out. You know.....get a bazillion labeled boxes placed in the yard and let start throwing things in the boxes and throw away what is trash. I want to completely empty it out. Then stack the boxes and I can go through them one by one. I get overwhelmed every time I go in there, maybe that way it will be more managable.

Thanks for the site and the access.

 

Is your virago shaft drive?

 

yes

 

I wonder if there are any other diff besides the engines?

 

I was going to ask if a carb is a carb is a carb. I mean I bet I could learn to clean my carbs from this site. I'm sure I have learned about painting techniques, and how to shave a seat and re-cover it. There is a wealth of info here I'm certain is interchangeable.

 

Bean, about the only similarity between these bikes is the shaft drive. Almost everything else is entirely different.

 

rims look similar

 

Sorry, I forgot, the rims and forks will swap over. Engine, frame, tank are all very different.
