This Yamaha XV535 has such low ground clearance also low seat height. so, it was a good choice for short people. This bike is came up before Yamaha XV250, 250 series is a bike which made with smaller displacement and Virago 535 was good for whom need the power but easy to handle.

Also, Yamaha Virago 535 doesn't use drive chain but it used a shaft drive that means it safe for beginners who worry about dealing the chain pain.
