great stuff, thanks. The swinging arm on mine looks pretty rough, but I assumed it would be a much bigger job to address it - you've made it look perfectly manageable. (So that's something else to add to my long list of jobs now...)
Is your workshop floor wood and if so how thick are the planks and what centre to centre are the support beams and what dimension underneath the flooring planks . Thinking of another option to a concrete floor here ! NIce bike , interesting video , hope to see more on the 535.
Hi Oscar. It took me a lot of searching to find out...so let me save you from that. It's YAM 40 Orange Cocktail. I believe that YAM 40 is the original Yamaha code - it's certainly the code that my paint supplier has provided. It's definitly Orange Cocktail. I've repainted the muguards. It currently looks a little light when compared to the tank but the top coat is looking a little dull and I need to polish it up to a shine. On a small test area, it did seem to darken it up a little. Of course, the colour match depends on where you get your paint from. I'll update in a few days as I'm polishing the new paintwork to get the mud guards re-fitted, which we'll show in our next video.
@@MotorcycleFettlers hi again. thanks for your fast answer. I will ask to a dealer for the colour you recomended. I found another colour really nice called ARANCIO BOREALIS LAMBORGHINI just in case I don´t find the orange cocktail.
If I wanted to also repaint the tank and side panels, I think I'd be going for that colour for sure. If you do paint it in that colour, be sure to share a photo!

Thanks for the feedback. Good luck!
Really informative videos! I got a 535 myself the other day and trying to learn
Hi Kevin. Thanks for your feedback. We've a few videos on our Virago, coming up. Next one tonight.
Good using a paddock stand for back wheel removal
Definitely!

16" centre to centre, on 4x2 on concrete blocks. Floor is 3/4 ply. Feels more solid than a solid thing.
hello, can you provide for the color code? thanks. Oscar
