Also called VF1100C
Engine 1,098 cc (67.0 cu in)
Power 116 bhp (87 kW)
Transmission 6-speed, shaft drive
Wheelbase 62.8 in (1,600 mm)
Weight

590 lb (270 kg)

 

The large displacement 1,098 cc (67.0 cu in) V65 Magna attracted attention as Honda's entry in the 1/4 mile wars between manufacturers at the time, causing Suzuki to respond with the 1200 Madura (which had a 1/4 mile time of 11.66 s at 115.7 mph), and going up against such competition as the Suzuki GS1150E (10.47 s at 128 mph). The V65 lay somewhere between these two in performance, posting a quarter mile time of 11.29 s at 119.2 mph (191.8 km/h).

This is a very clean bike, the paint is in excellent condition, there are no scratches on gas tank or side covers, the seat is flawless, the instrument panel is flawless.  It has a chrome kick stand but the original stand comes with the bike.  All lights, gauges, and indicators are in good working order.  This bike is very fast, especially 0-60 mph.  Clear Texas title signed and ready for transfer.

New battery installed 8/28/2013, fuel system cleaned at the same time including removal and cleaning of fuel tanks, new fuel line, fuel pump inspection, and carb cleaning.

 This bike has few flaws, there are light scratches on paint under seat from the seat mounting posts.  There is a light scratch on the rear fender.  There is a small ding in the left side exhaust pipe.  The fuel cut relay is bad and is bypassed, this is common ant the relay is readily available.  The rear shocks are stiff.  The carbs could use another round of cleaning and adjusting for better low rpm and idle performance.  Once over 4,000 rpms it runs like a top.  The rear tire is marginal, front tire in good shape.  It is missing on rear view mirror which is readily available.

Please email if you would like additional photos or would like to see the bike in person.
