What a gorgeous bike. A couple months ago, I flirted with the idea of getting a motorcycle license, enrolled in the MSF and passed without ever having sat on a motorcycle before. Came to find out my coworker's got one of these in his garage, less than 10,000 miles on it, with the original Candy Bourgogne Red paint on it. We've worked out an agreement, and within a couple more short months I'll be a proud owner of one of these. Can't wait!

I bought a new 1986 V-45 Magna, loved it.

I remember those days. The bikes were better built back in the day Jesus, I feel old

That is one badass MuscleCruiser, if there is such a word. Lol...That Candy Blue is the most gorgeous shade of blue that I have ever seen! John was a nice guy, that had an amazing collection, meticulous with his bikes. Love those rims!

The rake on that bike is iconic.

My dad had a v65 Magna and a v45 Magna too. Think he liked them better than any bike he ever had, maybe tied with his '74 CB750. But I've always seen pictures of these Super Magnas and thought they looked awesome.

I got one of these as my first working motorcycle, it had been sitting and the owner wanted it gone so I picked it up for 600 bucks. Almost all original except for a recovered seat and custom paint. It had some issues but I did the work on it myself and I now have a working bike!

Love the sound of the Magna!

A great bike from a great era thanks for sharing ken!

Nothing like a reliable Honda, what a gem 💎 👌

Ah the baby v max. Love the variety of bikes you feature. For a v4 I'm surprised it doesn't sound more exotic.

That’s exact bike I had. Picked up a brand new 87 in the summer of 1988 for $3100 out the door. List price was $4500. This bike was fast, smooth and beautiful. Nothing else has this look including later Magnas. I was told by my insurance agent that Japanese bike makers reduced the engines to 699 to counteract insurance price hikes on bikes over 700 cc. I put 20,000 miles on mine before selling it. Rode it cross country, rain, snow or shine 😸😸😸

Fun-Fact: The 700cc Japanese bikes were birthed by America's tariffs on all Jap 750cc bikes, (which were in direct competition our 750cc Harley Davidson's), so Japanese manufacturers did a very slick thing... (to get AROUND the tariffs) they mass-produced 700cc bikes, added bigger carbs, changed gearing, etc. and as a result, the 700cc Japs blew the freaking doors off America's Harley Sporters. -The tariffs worked for Harley sales for a while but in the end... Japs won this war... and Americans got some cool/two-year-only, light-weight monster classics.

That honda looks awesome. Love those magnas. $3000 work order is a little steep imo, but it sure is a badass looker.

❤nice motorcycle. I have 2 motorcycle honda super magna. The best confortabile . Fiabile. Very Good after 36 years

Wow, that's a classic, would be great to have the plastic cover by the throttle and brake all new or painted black. It would seem like it would be easy to get those, they were standard for many years. Might find NOS some where online. Great you are saving these bikes and showing them off. You do well in the videos, the serious rider and talker!

Hard to find one this clean. People loved these bike and put many miles on them. v4 so have more rpms if you need it.

I had a red 87’. Loved it but I kept dragging the pipes lifting the rear wheel. Such a fun bike

love this model , those pipes !!

I have a 87 same exact bike down to the yellow plugs awesome bike surprises any bike I ride with not an issue

I never saw this bike and I’m immediately in love❤️❤️❤️

I just can't decide how I feel about the quad pipes sticking up in the air like that!!!!! And the seat… It looks comfortable as hell but I think it looks funny too.

I'm on my Harley 883 heading to work right now. I just stopped at circle K to get a cup of coffee and I'll walk back to my bike and I'm like damn I'm riding that thing. Hoping back on the loop 101 in Scottsdale at Shea Blvd

Beautiful bike, ive got an 84' v30 that is my daily driver. Would love to have this for an upgrade.

Sounds great

Good morning kap God bless America 🇺🇸

I´ve always found it strange that Honda fitted a drum brake and a single brake disc to what otherwise would have been a convinsing and great looking motorcycle.

Sad with the dent/scratch in the tank on the right side :( just before the Honda emblem .. amazing that its all that`S "wrong" with it at this age

Awesome daily driver

Looks fast just sitting there

I had two of these! I got hit on my red one (was stopped in L turn lane, hit from behind by DUI) and replace it with the blue one!

👍 Watching your channel 👍

I bought that bike brand new and still own it to this day. I only have 10,000 miles own mine. By the way that is not the original seat.

If you don't like the drum brake on the bike just remember that it doesn't have a master cylinder that needs to be rebuilt ever.

How good was the 80's?!!?!?

I owned one identical to this. I wish that I'd never sold it. It had 27,000 miles on it but I took great care of it. I did a custom paint job (metallic grey), biggest dunlop tire I could fit on the back, k&n filter, custom seat, and few other things that really made it stand out even more. I got offers on it every time I took it out. Sold it in 2009 for $1,750.00. Freaking divorce 🤬. Women 🙄. Not all, just in case a Karen reads this 😂. Anyway, awesome bike!

Those were the Days....Now last 25 years we get a Shadow 750 🤣😂😜

Whats the cost ?

Water would easily getting inside exaust during rain

I always thought those bikes were cool

That's bad a$$ bike.
