Worked for me

I'm not very mechanically inclined. Yet when I went to do some major overhauling of my bike, this manual became an invaluable source.

For the more experienced mechanic.

Most of the the time the book was easy to use, but at times was a little confusing. I am an experieced mechanic and I feel that someone with little mechanical experience might get lost in the technical descriptions. The index and table of contents could be better laid out as well. Occasionally the pictures were of very little help when actually looking for certain parts, they need to be clearer. But otherwise the book does what it is supposed to do. It is good help when getting into an unfamiliar engine.

Clymer Yamaha Virago Manual Review

From simple routine maintenance to step-by-step, detailed instructions on complex services such as engine or transmission assembly, I found this book to be extremely complete, with hundreds of photographs, drawings and diagrams that illustrate every procedure. Dozens of tables are included listing information such as torque specifications, maintenance schedule and tune-up specifications for all models of Yamaha Viragos. Basic systems are explained and trouble-shooting guides list every possible problem and appropriate corrective measures.Warning and caution notes recommend correct procedures to ensure no damage results to you or your motorcycle. Basic tools and necessary supplies are listed, tips on safety and service hints help you do the job correctly. When faced with complicated services requiring special tools, such as final drive or crankshaft overhaul, you are advised to refer to a dealer or qualified specialist.While for amateur mechanics such as myself this is a perfect guide which will allow me to take proper care of my Virago, it will probably be extremely helpful to the professional mechanic as well.
