Honda Magna description
Hi, This is a bike I picked up in the early spring and went thru everything. I rebuilt all the master cylinders, the calipers, clutch slave cylinder. New brake lines, SS braided on front, regular stock on the back. New fork seals ( the original problem with the bike). New brakes all around. I ultrasonically cleaned the carbs and installed a Dynojet stage 1 jet kit. Now it runs right. I installed the upgrade oiling system which uses oil lines from the oil filter to the heads instead of old oil from on top of the transmission. The tires are good, I changed the oil in the diff, checked the u-joints. This is running Engine Ice coolant with Water Wetter and has an add on fan switch for those hot commute times. This bike has a large windscreen and the expensive, hard to find KG adjustable backrest. It has a thumb throttle lock for highway cruising. I threw on some cheap saddlebags for convenience. I installed a set of forward controls on it and yet retained the stock foot pegs for comfort. The bike comes with some extra parts, like another set of brake pads, a Haynes Manual, rear brake lever and engine guard if you want to take off the forward controls and a replacement ignition key set and tank lock as the current one sometimes sticks. Of course, it has a fresh battery and Maxima oil change in it. I added an oil pressure gauge to it but that can be removed quickly if you don't want it.
The bike runs great, I just can't swing my bad knees over the tail anymore. |

Sun, 16 Jun 2013Jump onboard with John McGuinness as he heads from the start line on his Shinden Ni / Mugen electric motorcycle in the TT Zero race. One wonders whether Honda would have announced that it is actually a Honda if McGuinness had taken the win. There's certainly plenty of Honda money behind the bike.
