From what I can tell, it's already naked. :yes:

well then... just chop the subframe, put a flat handlebar on it... paint it flat black... and ride the piss out of it trying to keep OSP from jack'n it!

I'm thinking, chop the pipes to the headers, put fur all over it, lower it to .5 inches above the ground, and stretch the swingarm out about 3ft. Yes. That sounds delicious!

Yup. 750cc V4. Almost the same motor as the VFR and like the VFR, it was derrived from their race motor.

I learned to ride on a Magna. They are nice bikes. Long throw from first to 2nd gear, if I remember correctly.

Audiomechanic 04-22-2008 08:14 PM

Maybe the older ones. The 750's 1-2nd could actually be a bit larger. They're really close together. but what do I care? This thing revs to 10 g's! It could use a 6th gear though. Oh, well. For 3700 bones, I ain't complainin!

Oh, and I asked my buddy how much the dealership charged to sync up his carbs on his 2004 599: over 500 bucks!!! Screw that. I know a guy with gauges. I'll do it my DAMN self.

Good move, fuck the dealership

No doubt. The stock pipes were gutted to make the bike louder, but I don't think the carbs were ever adjusted to make up for the loss in back pressure. I'm going to try stepping up the main jet to a 105 and shimming the needle 1-2 clicks and see what that does.
