I could buy one of these for $500 in my home town. Has set for atleast a year or 2. Has no title is my big concern. I've never gotten a salvage title before. But I'm fairly certain it's not stolen, this is a small town and the ad has been up for months. Think it's worth? Any advice?

My first motorcycle (not the one I learned on, but one I owned and rode and got my wings on) was a 1983 Magna V45. I absolutely loved it and still miss it. I know, it's not the 1100 monstrosity, but that 750 V4 was SWEET! I still think about it and love watching you wax poetic about the Magna/Saber of the days past. BTW, I still have a motor for the V45 in a basement. That poor thing went on me on a very romantic trip with a very special someone, who has now been my wife for 28 years. If you want a parts donor, LMK. I'm in Massachusetts.

I’m a fast rider in my own right I’ve run a 10.24 1/4 @ 135 with the z1000. but the rocket 3 was in my mirror the whole time and with how big and plush it is that’s a seriously sweet ride

You do need to oil the filter. Yes the oil will stop dirt but it more importantly slows down air delivery to the carbs. Other wise it will run lean.

Getting a Rocket 3 to 240 or even 300 horsepower is easy, but it would cost 5-6 grand. A TTS supercharger kit with a bunch of replacement parts and it would be an animal. Not sure how available those kits are now that these bikes start getting older.

Back in 2008 I found one of the last remaining clean Sabers. I never got the carbs perfect but it was great. Sadly I sold it for a song when I moved in 2011. What a bike. I forget all the tricks but I think a Ford Escort air filter fits almost perfectly. Or maybe it was an Escort fuel filter. Whatever 😝

I still want to try razor clams 🤤🤤. I love all the different types of food here. Some are pricey and some are a real bargain. If I win the rocket 3 I'll have to keep it for a while.

Engineers! I to was one to blame them for all the woes found all over bikes and autos. Until my son became one. He works in automotive engineering and it's not the engineering, it's company and expense. He built several turbo cars before getting his degree so he was well aware of the mechanic issues. He found out early, the standard response to any questions of helping the mechanic was, make it fit and make it work within the boundaries. In general, stuff it. So it's not that engineering is out to screw mechanics, it's costs and available space. Emissions is the biggest one to cause this. So they are very aware, their hands are tied.

Shade Tree, has twisted wrenches part-time for well over 50 years and have worked on several of these God Forsaken POS V65 series bikes. If you find one you will notice that they have low mileage, as at around the 40K mark nearly all will have crankshaft failure. Some years back got stuck working on one belonging to a friend. I told him before I even put it in the shop that most likely the crank will be SHOT, well I was correct. He never found a crankshaft that was serviceable, a crappy used one was around $1200, in 1997, and a new one was simply unobtainable at any price. I would RUN away from any of those series 500, 650 and 750 engines as they are a problem in the waiting. They are even worse for lifespans than the old Kawasaki H series 3 cylinder 2 strokes, they had a short life between overhauls, but you could rebuild them however.
