The 1990 Virago 535 was designated XV535A, and its shop manual is LIT-11616-XV-36.
Coverage runs across 1987, 1988 and 1990, and again from 1993 through 1999, because Yamaha maintained the one volume for the model's whole life rather than replacing it each season. Verify the code on your frame against that list and you know the book fits.
Work is presented in the order it is done. Components come off in sequence, get measured against a published limit while they are apart, and go back on at a stated torque. The electrical section is diagram-led, so a charging or ignition complaint is traced through the harness with test values instead of guessed at. Periodic maintenance intervals, fluid capacities and adjustment settings are all tabulated for reference.
