    This is better than nothing… but it is a frustrating book.

    It is extremely difficult to find the information you want. First, the book includes many models of Virago, which are all different. You will find yourself thumbing through pages and pages of not relevant material, and the entire second half is only about the 500 cc bikes. Second, the table of contents is not detailed and the index is almost non-existent. Finding a specific topic *always* takes good round of searching.

    Instructions will say things like “Step 1. See section 3 for how to do XX.” (Then spend 10 min combing through section 3 to find something relevant.) “Step 2. See section 4 to remove AA.” (Now spend another 10 minutes searching section 4.) References in the text never include page numbers.

    I’ll be checking out the competition.
