It's interesting to note that Chinese copy (i.e. production according to Yamaha license) of this model is motorcycle Lifan LF400 which has almost identical look, uses the same parts, and has similar technical characteristics. The only difference is that Lifan has chain-drive, contrary to xv400 Virago which has shaft-drive.
