I've a Magna '94, 30 years on this month, rejected, without dB killers and guys it's the missile of customs. I fell in love since I saw that model for the first time in 1995, I was 14.
Have an '83 and yeah sure, not the fastest bike by far, but that pass at ~ 2:30 demonstrates why I love it so much.. that 40-70 and/or 60-90 pull is so good! All the torque of a V motor but it's also a 4 cylinder Honda that revs to 10k..
This is a touring bike, not a race bike! Please do not overturn the engine. I stopped watching at 0:37, did not have nerves to see more. Take care of your self and the other trafficants.
This guy is a novice bike rider. He is way over-reving that bike. He's keeping it at or above redline most of the time. His power peak is below that by a couple of hundred RPM.s
Honda should bring back magna with drive shaft duel front brakes 6 so with 105 hp and magna riders will buy it oh must be v4 engine no more than 10'000 dollars Honda will be a number one crusier amen ps I've owned 4magnas in my 50 yrs of riding
You seriously need to learn how to properly ride a bike. A race bike would not appreciate the extremely excessive, long and pointless rpms all but on the redline, and you are on a cruiser. Not to mention giving it gas during? Or the fact that you pushed zero envelopes other than stupidity. You are a disgrace to Honda enthusiasts, go buy a Harley.
This guy don't know how to ride but he knows how to keep the RPMs up to blow up an engine.. that bike are to be doing a hundred thirty miles per hour at 8000 RPMs. ????
I'm buying a 96 purple and white V striped rare deluxe model with the factory. Faring windscreen. Vance & Hines exhaust and Corbin seat next week. !!! It only has 17,000 miles on it it needs new tires carbs cleaned and jetted. It looks like a show bike it'll be for sale next year for $3,950. !!! ????
What year is that? I had a 1983 V45 Magna... and it was no dog, that's for sure. Fastest 1/4 mile in it's class... shaft drive (no chains or floppy belts), hydraulic clutch (no cable.. all hydraulic)... and it never gave me any grief. Never had to hit the redline either... Made me nervous seeing him way up in the red when he was only at 95mph or less.
Sure, he can do the same speed at lower rpm in a higher gear, but keeping the bike in a lower gear with the rpms high allows you to decelerate quickly by just rolling off the throttle, rather then moving your hands and feet to use the brakes. Keeps you from eating the car that pulls out in front of you, and allows you to pass him easily without downshifting. These 3rd generation magnas will do 130+ on a flat straightaway, but he ain't drag racing here.
Nice run there. I have an 82. You know you can learn to up-shift it without the clutch without hurting anything. In fact when you get the feel and timing it's easier on up-shifts than using the clutch while accelerating. Especially easier on things that pulling the clutch in and shifting with the throttle open, over-reving the engine like you did at 0:53 and again at 1:17. Under power, put upward pressure on the shift lever before shifting and just turn the throttle off and back on as fast as you can. It will shift. In fact the faster you are with the throttle the easier on the gearbox it is. You can make it nearly seamless. I learning it drag racing starting with my 70 Kawasaki Mach III and my 72 Mach IV. I learned it from national record holding stock class riders. I have never busted a gear. downshifting or any shifting where you're not right back to the throttle is a different story. You do not want to be 500 RPMs over on these. There's no advantage and you can hurt it. The power curve flattens at redline, there's nothing more to get.
I think it's worth just clutching to play it safe and not worry about missing and ruining a gear. I've heard lots of people ruin gears shifting like this and I completely understand if you don't miss it's fine but a lot of people miss, lol.
they are fully synchronized transmissions there is not missing a grear. There are a couple of false neutrals but it you hit one just pull the clutch in and let the revs come down and finish the shift. It only happens when you cat careless about enough pressure with you toe and only happens if you're wide open or at least accelerating hard. Tell me you've never got careless with the clutch an missed you timeing a crunched a shift. In city traffic I can make the up shifts sound like and automatic transmission. It is easier on the transmission and creates zero clutch wear. You say you know lots of guys that have messed up gears with no cluch shifting. How come I don't know any? I do know lots of guys that have worn out the clutch. Some idiots get all macho about the term powershifting. That's where you leave the throttle open and use the clutch to shift it. 2 problems there. If you're at or near redline and pull the clutch in you over-rev the engine. I drive my bike and my car hard but I NEVER over-rev an engine unless by mistake. Often the damage from over-reving doesn't show up that day. You just end up days or weeks later wondering where that knock came from. Plus there is the tremant amount of clutch wear. The clutch ends up pulling the over-reved enging down to transmission speed. Exceeding red line is the worse thing you can do to an engine. Have you tried it. Try it in city driving. I do recommend using the clutch in casual riding shifting first to second as that's the widest gear change but form there use you normal sift points and put a modest amount toe pressure on the shifter and blip the throttle. I'm amazed at how smooth it can be. Just a click. The only real danger is in running full throttle. Then you make one two with no clutch to and the rest. Running wide open or close to it you don't use modest pressure with the toe, you use hard upward force. If you don't you can find a false neutral and if you don't let the over-reved engine spin back down with the clutch in, it will crunch hard. Just because it's called a false neutral doesn't mean it's not neutral. When you go to neutral at a stop you go to first and use light pressure to hunt for the spot between 1st and 2nd where neutral is. Fortunatly there's a light to tell you when you there. If you go hunting for neutrals between other gears most bikes will find one or two. So, hitting a false neutral is neutral and the input side is not connected to the output side. You wouldn' dream of going from neutral into gear without the clutch. So if you're a no clutch rider and find a neutral between 4 and 5 running wide open, maybe in a race your instinct is after closing the throttle because you just over-revved it is to just jam in 5th and get back after it. It will object to going from neutral to 5th without the clutch smoothing out the difference between the input and out put sides of the transmission. Shifting from neutral into gear is a different process than shifting from gear go gear in synchronized transmissions. Stopped in neutral the input side of the transmission is spinning at engine speed and the output side is not turning. Pulling the clutch in lets the input side spin to a stop before you push it in gear. You probably know this if you've ever set the idle speed too high or have just a little clutch drag especially on hydraulic clutches and had trouble getting in first with no crunch. If you hit neutral on my old magna at 10000 rpms that's how fast the input side is spinning. You must disengage the engine from the input side, make the shift, then let the clutch smooth out the differences in speed and momentum between the 2 sides of the transmission. That is why even in city traffic just tooling around I always use rev matching blips on every downshift. When you do that right the clutch has very little to do. So to recap, only real danger to upshifing without the clutch is panicking if you hit a false neutral. And to be clear I'm not saying it's safe to downshift without the clutch. In a drag race you'll give up half a second using the clutch.
Carbon Crank rev matching nobody knows how to do that anymore. !!!!! I used to race the 1978 cow 900 an 1000. But the CR 250 2 Strokes. Hitting the doubles and triples under hard-ass throttle and flying through the air was much more fun for 13 or 14 years. !!! I'm getting ready to buy a beautiful purple and white VF 750 custom deluxe with the factory fairing and windscreen Vance & Hines exhaust Corbin seat. It looks like a show bike with 17,000 miles on it I can pick it up for $2,100. Just needs new tires and the carbs cleaned and probably jetted. !!!! It'll be for sale next year for 3950 dollars. !!!???!!!!
How is it so fast?
I know it's ok but I just can't Rev mine like that.

This is a 700.......
4TH gear in the Nighthawk S was awesome.....lol
Cuantos hp tiene
Was hört sich die scheiße an. Nur am blech schreien
I just recently bought a 1982 Magna as my first big bike. You have good riding skills that I can learn from!
This is a touring bike, not a race bike! Please do not overturn the engine. I stopped watching at 0:37, did not have nerves to see more. Take care of your self and the other trafficants.
BADASS SOUND🤘🔥
I've been babying my magna, it had 72,000 miles when I bought it, so I haven't pushed it past 7k rpm. Sounds great at 9 though.
Damn that's some miles loo
@@brandonpurple8938 It's got another 72K in er
ale ziomuś męczy żelazo!!! multistrada v4s by mu się przydała!!!

Pasale cambios stupid
Wow wow its somesting that makes your heart beats faster, cant stop lesten to the sound of 9 rpm love it
Just git a free runnijg snd driving magna 500 from 85. Needs body work tho
1.6 8v ? 90km?
too fast for 1.6e
Nice twisty road, rider should learn how to shift though.
I just got a 97 magna ,,this vid is 8years old,,and this vid is pure adrenaline!!!
I have an 02 Honda Magna, converting to a bobber. It's amazing machine.
F..k the rules ..
i got to 140kmh on gravel
Чумовая магна, но звук печальный конечно. И тормоза. Зато разгон может удивить очень многих ракетчиков в потоке )))
чёта я не понял!с чего у него вдруг шесть передачь?
Como cambias la tripa del velocímetro? Se me cortó y no anda
You can go with this. Fast with low revs cruise speed.?
Your engine temperature is high
Honda should bring back magna with drive shaft duel front brakes 6 so with 105 hp and magna riders will buy it oh must be v4 engine no more than 10'000 dollars Honda will be a number one crusier amen ps I've owned 4magnas in my 50 yrs of riding
I love this bike!

For racing you need another bike bro
Tenho uma em preto,muito bonita e um bom motor anda muito bem

Have you seen the rare purple and white VF 750 custom. Deluxe with the factory fairing and windscreen. ????
I just got a '96 purple and white yesterday. Love it!
Quarter mile in 12.4 seconds
How many Cruiser type bikes will do a hundred thirty miles an hour with no problem and hit the corners and make crotch rockets envious. !!!!!
How many miles on it?
con una rueda levantada hasta un fiat 600 levanta asi
Por qur no.puede so tiene las relaciones cortas
don't understand the need to keep the rpm's so high at all time. To do that there are other bikes ...
The VF750 or V45 Magna was really quite a dog. Had to keep the rpm's high to get any performance at all.
What year is that? I had a 1983 V45 Magna... and it was no dog, that's for sure. Fastest 1/4 mile in it's class... shaft drive (no chains or floppy belts), hydraulic clutch (no cable.. all hydraulic)... and it never gave me any grief. Never had to hit the redline either...

that's a v4 engine, it's a sport bike engine on a cruiser

@@johnjones3648 DOG! I take it you have never owned or ridden one? As a cruiser it is kin awesome!
not stock or downhill i think
Its stock i have exactly same onr it is bit. More powerful doh
I can't believe that is a cruiser bike, nice video man
nice
is that a cell phone camera? how do you hold it? I'll make one.

I get so overwhelmed watching these videos. I want a magna so bad.
Love mine soo fun n fast!
It’s been 6 years, did you get your magna?
I just picked up a 3rd gen (1996) vf750c and I'm in love, this thing tears ass! Watching your video gave me goosebumps.
