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!

There are two ten mm screws below the widest part of the seat, remove them. Lift the back and pull to the rear to unhook the front.
