Guy wants 2000 should I pull the trigger.
« on: June 22, 2009, 06:55:14 AM »
Have been going back and forth looking for good deals. From what I have heard these bikes are the cats boobies. You think it is a good deal at 2000.

If you like the styling then yes that's a good deal. They run the same engine as the Interceptor sport/touring bikes. As long as it's been taken care of it should be a really good (and fast) bike for you.

That is a great price !  Check to see if it is a vf750c or vf750cd...I would jump on it and I'll bet you wont be dissapointed after you ride it. Condition..... bike has never been dropped and that sort of thing.

I've ridden a number of those from when I was working in shops right around that time.
I always like the sound and power from those Magnas... The styling never bothered me either, not trying to be a Harley, in my opinion, just a well built Honda.

I like them as well but they are pulling more than 2 grand and I am looking they made for a decent string of years so parts are abundant

the 90's were the best overall.  as i said before, pull the trigger and you won't regret it. one nasty ass bike that will put the biggest sh!t eatn grin on your face for sure. ;D ;D ;D   Once you crack the throttle and go through the gears to redline, (you will quit at third cause you will be @ almost a ton and a half) you will understand how cool of a bike it is. I get between 43 to 55 mph besides.

My uncle had a sickly yellow one. Then his son customized it. truly WICKED black with clear metal fake ghost flames ans chrome flame tips everywhere. wrap on the pipes, blacked out engine, etc...

And then he looks like an accountant biker-wanna-be! ::)
