Cheech Marin of the comedy group Cheech and Chong, appears in the TV show Lost, s3e10, Tricia Tinaka is Dead. He plays the father of a regular character on the show who rides off on a Yamaha Virago 535 when he leaves his son. The motorcycle is only shown once in the episode. This episode first aired on February 28, 2007.
The Yamaha Virago 535 first went into production in 1987 and ended in 2003. It's powered by a 535cc vtwin engine with a 5 speed manual transmission through a shaft final drive. This motorcycle was considered a mid size Virago.
Notice how the spelling on the side of the gas tank say "AMAH" instead of "YAMAHA." I guess that was done for legal reasons. I always see car and truck logo's covered up or removed on vehicles that appear in shows or movies. If you look at the fourth photo down there is a decal on top of the gas tank closer to the left side. It should say "Virago," spelled out in cursive writing.
