Description
Fast Cruiser.A 1986 Honda Magna. For when I want to ride the breeze:
Stone Free:
Everyday in the week i'm in a different city
If i stay too long people try to pull me down
They talk about me like a dog
Talkin' about the clothes i wear
But they don't realise they're the ones who's square
Hey!
And that's why
You can't hold me down
I don't want to be down i gotta move
Hey
Stone free do what i please
Stone free to ride the breeze
Stone free i can't stay
I got to got to got to get away
--James Marshall Hendrix
The Jimi Hendrix Experience
from their first single circa 1967
EDIT: Oops this is not correct. Hey Joe was the Experience's first single. Stone Free was the first song Jimi wrote for the band.

Thanks! All stock (except the bags). All she needs is a battery and oil and coolant changes right now.
Looking forward to seeing your creation!

WOW! your V45 is shinier than mine 
what's she got for millage?

Haha!
Unfortunately she's not quite so shiny at the moment. This was taken just after a five day detailing, but she's been used as a daily driver for a couple of years since then, rain and shine, with only occasional washing. This spring she gets the royal treatment again, though!
63,000 miles on the odo.

wow, mines a 83 and it's only got 7000 miles; but I'm going to fix that this summer.

Me too! Yeah, the former owner was a distance cruiser, but he lived next door, so I've known my bike since it was brand new!
It looked not unlike this.

mine was owned by a friend of my fathers, he put the initial 4500 miles on it and then stuffed it in the garage... It sat there from 1987 to 2007 and then it found me.

What a beautiful piece of machinery! 1986? My god, it looks brand new. V4 500cc?

You actually mean that is the original paint? Jesus, is it just me, or they don't make them as they used to?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Um, dunno about today, but the only thing not original are the saddlebags and the "Magna" decals. Those are replacements.
