Honda Magna description

1984 honda v65 magna parts bike. I bought this last year and just don’t need it. I still have another parts bike that has everything I need. Believe it or not the bike only has 8,500 miles on it but was left outside most of it’s life. I will say the motors bad for two reasons. Last year I dumped fuel down the air intake and it sounded good but when I replaced the carbs after rebuilding them, the motor would only make a ¾ rotation before locking up. You can reverse the crank and then try to turn it over again, but it will not complete a revolution. Second, thinking it may have been a component under the clutch cover, I removed it to watch the engine turn over. Little did I know that a piece of aluminum that holds the starter clutch pin would snap off.  The locking up of the engine did not happen during the running stage so I am baffled. Bad valve, screw fell into the piston chamber while removing the carbs? Who knows. Bike has the following missing, CDI Boxes, starter clutch, headlight and I’m sure a few other things. Still has the fuel pump and all electronics in the fuse panel area and relays under the seat. Sold with bill of sale only. No title given to me due to age.


Off the top of my head these items are also missing : headlight,gauges but the gauge cups are still there, carbs,rt side cover, and tank. Im sure there may be a few other items but if you see something in the pictures of the bike, YOU WILL BE GETTING IT….

AMA Pro GoPro Daytona SportBike Riders Gearing Up For Road America

Thu, 29 May 2014

The AMA Pro GoPro Daytona SportBike class makes its much-anticipated return to Road America this weekend. The four-mile Wisconsin circuit is a particularly exciting place to watch the middleweight bikes because its long straights and braking zones make passing and lead changes commonplace. More than just a test of man and machine, the races often develop into a strategic battle leading up to the all-important last lap and run up the hill to the checkered flag.

Schwantz and Mackenzie on the Nurburgring box

Mon, 10 Dec 2012

A 500GP bike never fails to stop me in my tracks and that’s exactly what happened when I spotted this Schwantz example from the early nineties, proudly displayed on the Arai stand at the recent Motorcyclelive show.  On loan from Crescent Suzuki and accompanied by a rostrum publicity shot from the 1990 German GP at the Nurburgring, I felt the urge to write a few words on that special weekend. I started the year running my own 250 GP team with fairly standard TZ Yamahas but was drafted in as Kevin Schwantz’s team mate after Kevin Magee suffered a serious head injury at the second Grand Prix in Laguna Seca.  With no testing and some major Spanish food poisoning I finished 8th at the next round in Jerez then followed that up with a 5th place in Misano. Next up was the Nurburgring and after qualifying on the second row of the grid, my crew chief Geoff Crust informed me he had a premonition of a race day rostrum finish. He also told me I better make it come true as he was already looking forward to a few post race celebratory refreshments. While I hoped Crusty was the new mystic meg, the truth was I would have been more than happy to buy the beers if I made it to the flag inside the top five. I had an outside chance of catching one major scalp as Wayne Rainey was riding with a nasty hand injury but I suspected adrenalin would see him through the day. I also followed Mick Doohan a fair bit in practice but he was beginning to find his feet on the Rothmans Honda so was going to be another problem.  When the lights went out Schwantz and Rainey went straight to the front I while I hung in behind Doohan and Pier Francesco Chilli, and then it happened. Coming out of the bottom right hand hairpin, Doohan and Chilli simultaneously high sided in one of the most spectacular crashes of the season. I never liked seeing any fellow riders crash but I made the most of this early race gift and rode my 160bhp/115kg RGV hard to the flag, claiming my first podium of the season.  We partied hard (win or lose we always did) that night and I went on to have my best ever season finishing fourth overall in the championship. After the last round in Australia, I finished second to Kevin at Sugo in Japan then won in Malaysia at another international race that KS didn’t attend. I also tested at Eastern Creek for the following season but then was flicked from the team for reasons that still remain a mystery. Hey Ho!
