| Comments | Submitted to Bikez by visitor with the following comments: Frame # JYA56G007FA000878 Engine # 56G-000878 748cc. Yamaha does not recognize a 1985 XV750 Virago, since they switched to the 700 cc Virago in 1984. My bike was made in Oct/1984 and I cannot match the frame or engine number to Yamaha´s build list. I am trying to get an explanation from Yamaha but in the meantime, I have a Unique bike. |
