1984 VF700C V45 Magna (c) 1998 David B. Hill1984 Honda VF700C, the V45 Magna.  My introduction to Magnas.  My wife (before we were married) wanted a motorcycle and asked for my help buying one.  I had no inclination toward the cruiser style, but she fell in love with this bike.  After driving hers a few times, I decided I wanted one, in the V65 flavor.

After a serious car accident, Tally quit driving motorcycles, and I tended to drive my V65 when I had the opportunity, so this bike was sold in July, 1998.  It had about 27,500 miles on it.

If you don't know about Magnas -- well, they are powered by a V-4 liquid cooled engine; this one has a displacement of 700cc.  It's powerful, quick, quite comfortable, uses a shaft drive rather than a chain drive (no messy chain lubing chores), and is the best handling cruiser you will find.
