1983 Honda V45 Magna/VF750c

 The bike is comfortable. and does not cause fatigue on a long ride. The Corbin seat provides great support for the lower back. The swept back Magna handle bars make the seating position comfortable. like setting in your recliner. The half wind shield. we cut it down and darkened it because it has some hazing and besides it looks better lower and dark. The windshield does a great job of keeping the rider dry when it rains. The tires are about 75%. stock type Dunlop's. The motor is classic Honda VTec V4 motor. Cruises smoothly and rips when you open the throttle. The VTec kicks in and pushes your butt to the back of the Corbin seat. The carbs work real good. no hesitation. when cold the choke works just like it's supposed to. I had to replace the oil pan because the previous owner stripped the threads on the drain plug. I didn't want to mess around with some kind of auto parts drain plug fix. I ordered an Ebay replacement. Like I said earlier. no leaks. can't stand leaks.  

This bike may be old. but Honda made those V4 engines to last for ever. Honda is still using the V4 engines even today. I also replaced the fan motor. the old one squeaked a bit. don't like errant noises either. Riding last summer through the central valley of Oregon and the temps over 100 F. the temp gauge never went above the middle of the gauge. even in Portland traffic.

This bike is a good runner. Great bike for the beginner or the seasoned rider. Those of you that ride Harleys and the wife doesn't want to ride two up anymore this is a great bike for her too. Hell it'll out run the Harley anyways.
