Motorcycle Repair: 920 Virago Starter Noise, starter motor problems, virago 920
QuestionI have a 1983 Virago 920 it has a lot of starter noise when you start it. Is there an adaptor kit or some type of a starter to install and eliminate this noise?
Thank You
Dwayne
AnswerHi Dwayne.
There's not a lot to be done about the starter noise. I have never heard of any kit to make the starter motor quieter. The important thing is that it works. I rebuilt the starter on my 86 XV700 about 5 times in 6 years to keep it working. Virago's are notorious for having starter motor problems which Yamaha never, to the best of my knowledge, fixed.
Sorry.
