Years

Later Virago 535 models also use the upper tank, increasing capacity to about 13.5 litres. Brakes, wheels and ignition received detail updates while the air-cooled V-twin and shaft drive remained.
Years
1987 - 1988
The earliest XV535 uses only the small fuel tank beneath the seat; the teardrop upper tank is still a cover. Limited range and the first brake/wheel layout distinguish this series.
The Yamaha XV 535 Virago is a compact Japanese V-twin cruiser produced from 1987 to 2003. The air-cooled 535 cc V2 engine produces 46 hp and pairs this with a low seat height of 715 mm and a weight of 188 kg, making it an excellent entry point into the cruiser segment. The classic chopper styling with wide-rake front forks, chrome details and a teardrop fuel tank are timeless and popular with first-time riders and custom enthusiasts.
The XV 535 is ideally suited to riders with an A2 licence or beginners looking for a reliable, manageable motorcycle. The compact dimensions and low seat height inspire confidence. It competes with the Honda Shadow VT 600 and Kawasaki Eliminator 400, and remains popular as a first motorcycle and as a budget entry into the cruiser segment.
