Segment: Custom/Cruiser
Production years: 2006, 2007
Small, terribly easy to ride, economical and above all - looking just like any of its bigger siblings, the 2006 Yamaha XV250 Virago is the perfect beginner bike for riders who want to check out what cruiser/chopper riding is all about. Lightweight and with decent room for two-up riding, the Virago 250 is also affordable and comes with minimal maintenance costs.
Accessories can turn this quarter-liter bike into a nifty cruiser for moderate distances. Adding a windscreen and saddlebags also increase comfort and convenience, making it a great replacement for car commuting and even for a little shopping...
