Motorcycle Forum / General / Yamaha / May 2007Saddlebags removal
Hi I recently bought a great Yamaha Virago XV750 from 1992. It came with saddlebags mounted, and now I would like to remove them, in order to clean the bike properly and to see if I like it better without. But I have not been able to find any info on the web about how to remove the bags, and looking at the bike I can't seem to find the "magical" screw. I can only see, that I need to remove the saddle first, but how is that done? Many thanks in advance Lasse. Pamplona, Spain. > I can only see, that I need to remove the saddle >first, but how is that done? The XV-750D was a US model, European models may vary. The side covers come off with a firm pull, and the seat is held down by two bolts near the front.

How coincidental. About two hours ago, I was reading about the history of the kingdom of Navarra during the Protestant Reformation and how the royal family was forced to flee because Navarra wouldn't join the Holy League. That was when my Basque ancestors became Huguenots in France. On May 26, 2:02 am, "Albrecht via MotorcycleKB.com" <u33665@uwe> wrote: > The XV-750D was a US model, European models may vary.

I found no variation on my European model.
