Honda Magna description

Up for sale is my unrestored V65 Magna. Has 24,xxx miles and is in nice shape for the age.
These were the "original" muscle cruisers cabable of 11 sec 1/4 mile out of the box.
Impressive technology that rivals modern sport bikes.

Non perfect items:

- Left side muffler is dented from previous owner.
- Gas tank has some minor shallow dents (can't even see them in the pics).
- Small scuffs on engine guard.
- Carbs could use a good cleaning. Idles with choke 1/2 on.

The good items:

- Chrome is in good to excellent condition.
- No pitting on aluminum.
- Guage cluster is pristene, no fading on the lettering or guage faces.
- Front master cylinder and claipers have been rebuilt.
- Rear tire is very good condition.
- Front tire is showing its age.
- No second gear shift issues. Common on bikes that were run very hard.
- Runs very strong. So good it scares me. Like a white knuckle roller coaster ride.
- Has a Slipstreamer windshield that works very well.
- Bike still has all the original paint, decals/warning stickers and tool kit.
- Has a Corbin seat in excellent condition.


Bike is ridden and not a trailer queen nor is it a concours show bike. It has normal wear on the normal wear points. It is an exceptional example. You won't be disappointed. I am 55 years old and don't abuse any of my vehicles. I have other bikes that get more ride time plus a wedding to pay for so this one is going.

I can take more detailed pics at your request.

Bike is licensed and insured, but no test rides unless cash is in my hand. This bike is not for beginners.

Dan Gurney’s Two-wheeled Terror at IMS

Tue, 09 Dec 2008

When the Gurney Alligator A6 made its debut in 2002, the world saw a glimpse of a new concept in sport motorcycles. Long, low, quick and efficient like its namesake, the ’Gator was like nothing we’d seen before. The bike was the brainchild of Dan Gurney, the legendary F1 and Le Mans winning driver and championship-winning sports car builder.

Classic Race Finishes: 1991 250cc Misano Grand Prix – Video

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

More than just a medium to view countless hours of cat videos, YouTube allows us to look back at classic motorcycle races otherwise lost to the depths of the VHS tape. This time around features the no-holds-barred, back-and-forth action between Luca Cadalora, aboard the Rothmans Honda NSR250 and Helmut Bradl, father of current MotoGP rider, Stefan Bradl, riding the HB Honda NSR250. The stage is the 1991 250cc Italian Grand Prix at Misano — back when it was run in the correct, counter-clockwise, direction.

Someone is Takin' the Mick

Thu, 30 Sep 2010

Pull out the slippers and plant yourself in front of a log fire and let Mick Grant talk you through his racing career. With a foreword from our Whit', the book details Granty's life from his Yorkshire roots through to all of his seven TT wins and the intense rivalry with Barry Sheene in the 1970s. Don't judge the book by it's cover, it's not a disaster like the out-of-focus oval-pistoned Honda NR500 but a good read.
