Virago 125 is a slow bike. If not wrong, the meter maximum speed
is 140. I still on my P plate, so usually I ride slow. As for fuel
consumption, about $5 of 98 can go up to 160km. For power, got some
difficulty going up a steep slow go gear 3 from slow speed, so go
for 2. About the "pop pop" Harley sound... pai seh, never see
Harley before so dun know...
Last time the problem I've mentioned is due to the spark plug, so
solution is just to change it.
If you want fast bike, I dun think Virago suits you. If you just
want to travel from point A to B, you can go for it. I use it to
travel from Tampines to Jalan Basar everyday, so far no break down
yet.
