Perfect as an entry-point cruiser for new riders and equally suitable as an economical urban commuter for those who are not too fond of scooters, the 2003 Virago 250 brings out the best of both worlds. The bike offers excellent comfort for a machine of its size, with a lightweight build and low, reassuring seat, while the 249cc air-cooled v-twin provides a great punch which makes two-up riding a breeze. | Perfect as an entry-point cruiser for new riders and equally suitable as an economical urban commuter for those who are not too fond of scooters, the 2003 Virago 250 brings out the best of both worlds.

Add in saddlebags and a windscreen and you're also good to ride that extra mile on overnight trips and highway hauls. City errands, small shopping lists and the like included. | Add in saddlebags and a windscreen and you're also good to ride that extra mile on overnight trips and highway hauls.

Accessories can turn this quarter-liter bike into a nifty cruiser for moderate distances. Adding a windscreen and saddlebags also increase comfort and convenience, making it a great replacement for car commuting and even for a little shopping... | Accessories can turn this quarter-liter bike into a nifty cruiser for moderate distances.
