new tins, updated pics
« on: August 29, 2007, 08:01:33 PM »
for the Magna

I took the bike out for a spin tonight, and she runs great. Still need a few more parts and mods, but it close to being done....

Maria finally finished them painting all the parts, and I have to show them off. I will be installing them this weekend, and getting the bike ready for its first local show Sept 22.

The bike is a 1988 Honda Super Magna (only 3500 made) and I have spent 16 months rebuilding, cleaning, polishing and modifying it.

The paint is Satin Black with a fine speck Metallic Silver.
it should match the powdercoating Pepsx did for me forever ago. thanks Dan.
I will take more pics when it is all together.

If you don't bring that thing to a meet and greet sometime soon, I'll be hunting you down myself.  That paint is awesome.

NICE!!!  I had a Magna before the X and I miss that thing.  Honestly, it's the most 'fun' bike I've ever owned.  The X is great for cruising and long distance, but man, that Magna handled like a dream!

I like how it's a super magna, but it's powered by kryptonite. it's gonna look hot. make sure to post pics when you put it all back together.

Can't wait to see complete pics... X-aholic and I have something in common there...  First time I saw one of those was the first time I love a bike that didn't have full plastic!  :)
