Pros: Looks, Power, Handling, Manuverability Cons: Fuel capacity, seat
Bought this '95 Magna from a local Honda dealership on Dec 2, 2002. The bike had 807 original miles, and had been re-painted grey (was Magna Yellow). The engine had been checked out, anything wrong was repaired or changed, and I was given a 90 day full...

Pros: Handling, performance, weight, comfort, low vibration Cons: small fuel tank, relative lack of customizing options
I'm a relatively finicky person. I expect things to do what their supposed to without having to spend a fortune in performance or comfort mods. This is my second summer on the Magna and I can honestly say it's exceeded my expectations. I was looking for...

Pros: Power Power Power and looks too! Cons: Fuel capacity, wind drag
I bought a 98 Magna about a year ago and these are my thoughts on this bike.......
I did not take buying a bike lightly. I do not know about you but 7500.00 is a lot of money to me.So I read review after review until I narrowed the bike purchase...

Pros: Great handling, looks, acceleration Cons: Small Gas tank and terrible seat!!!!
I just bought a new 2003 Magna this winter. I didn't buy it used simply because I like the candy blue color of the current model and If your going to spend money why not buy what you want and since we had a hard winter, the dealers where more than...

Pros: good cruising bike, great gas mileage,comfortable Cons: NONE
I purchased a Honda Magna 750 about a year ago and it was the greatest day in my life. My husband rides a Gold Wing and it was great riding on the back of this big bike, but I wanted to ride also. So we went down to the Honda shop and looked for a bike...

Pros: initial cost, acceleration Cons: confused styling, range, "buzziness", cold-blooded.
I purchased a '98 Magna after selling my trusty (but somewhat rusty) '69 CB750 Honda. No denying the Magnas' reliability and acceleration, but the bike does fall short in certain areas. At highway speeds, the engine revs too high; beyond the point of...

Pros: POWER, handling & comfy ergos Cons: Carburation...strrrange carburation.
I recently traded a new 00' Yamaha YZF 600R for a 99' model Magna with
only 1,975 miles on it.
I just could not abide the hand and wrist fatigue any longer, and decided
that since I had a 1987 Magna once, why not try one again...

Pros: Speed,looks,style, cruiser/sports bike Cons: None
I'll start out by saying I just bought my Magna thanks to the reviews of this site. The Magna I bought from GW Cycle here in Calgary is an awesome machine. I bought the bike used for $8400 Canadian/$6100 US with 2400 Kilometers/1400 miles.
My...

Pros: handling, looks, unique bike, throttle response, mag wheels, chrome, SPEED! Cons: stock seat, peg positions (sits straight up, get forward controls), get windshield
Just bought a nice, used '98 Black Magna with 6,500 miles. I was also looking at the Shadow 750 (ACE and Spirit) and the 650 V Star. These were the other bikes that would have fit my budget. After reading other user reviews on this website about ...

Pros: Great power, light, smooth, nimble and flickable. Beats all Harleys except Vrod in 1/4 mile. Cons: Short range, stock carburetion is lean, could use better brakes.
If you are looking for a cruiser that can do it all, you have just found it. This bike has power and it is a blast to drive. It is supposed to run mid 12's in the quarter mile stock, although I have yet to try for myself. Torque is good throughout the...

Pros: Good looking, quick for a cruiser, Handles pretty good Cons: Absolutely No Honda Customer Service, "Lean surges" throughout the RPM range, Pricey, Low cruising range
I bought a 2001 Magna and noticed right off the bat that it had a considerable lean surge. I did some research online and found that this is a common problem. Lesson learned: ALWAYS research something before you dish out a bunch of cash. Took it to...

Pros: Power! Handling Cons: drum brakes and small tanks
I bought a '02 Magna a couple of months ago and I can honestly say that it is a great bike.
It has the power to do everything I need it to do (except out run my buddies V-Max and FZ-1). But then again I only have 750cc compared to the V-Max's...

Pros: The Magna is a great, mean looking, quick and nimble bike for around town. Cons: small tank, needs overdrive for highway, it's buzzy,and a bit jerky at low Rpm's
Overall, despite my con's, I love this bike. It's a heck of alot of fun......but, most of us can only afford one bike and hope that it can do most things well. I really enjoy riding this back and forth to work, it put some spring back into my step going...

Pros: great acceleration and hangs curves with no problem Cons: uncomfortable seat
When I graduated from high school a couple months ago I had a choice of how to spend my graduation money. So I went to a local Honda shop and made a down payment on my Magna, which I had to have as soon as I saw it. It's a black and orange '99 deluxe....

Pros: handling, power, comfort, style, unique, v-4, water cooled, Cons: rear drum brake, chain drive, cable clutch, needs floorboards,
I have a 1994 Honda VF750C Magna. I purchased this bike in a used condition, but very well maintained. My 94 is basically the same as the 2000 model by Honda except the newer models have a 4mm larger carbeurator setup.
I really like the...
