Sometimes I have found a couple Virago's where the Seat ISN'T held down by bolts at all but a latch kinda like a latch to a cars hood. Remove the Left side cover. In the Middle of the seat, where the rider and passenger point is; there is two metal pieces protruding downward. Feel for the one in the back. Push it forward. This latch is attached to a rod that goes to the other side so by rotating the left side it also unlatches the right side.
I hope this helps someone else!

I'm not sure about the Virago 700, but on the 535 it's under the right side-cover, under the seat, clinging to the side of the under-seat gas tank. If in doubt, follow the thick positive wire from your battery, it goes straight into the relay.
