    ok, virago has better suspension, handles better.I'd say that virago is faster too. maintenance is cheaper, drink less petrol. virago is bullet proof too actually. you hardly need to adjust the carburators or the valves. but i'm with you in term of simpler engine deisgn.

    i had a Virago535, now i have a Sportster 883. The Yamaha has much better suspension and overall handling, it's also much lighter. The power ratio on both is basically the same, since the Sportsters more powerful engine is let down by the additional 50 kilograms in weight. I must however say that i prefer the Sportster, the overall build quality is "bulletproof" compared to the Yamaha. The Yamaha engine also requires carb synchro and valve adjustments, unlike the simpler Harley design :)

    I see now. Thank you for much for teh clarification. I totally agree with you. Harley is over priced. The funny thing is, they always use the old engine with new price tag. damn.
