HONDA MAGNA 750, 1993+
|
|
The 'Power Cruisers' category that had been occupied by the Kawasaki Eliminators and the Yamaha V-Max, (as well as the 1980's Magna's), was bolstered in 1993 with the Magna 750. As an early release 1994 model, Honda sought to capture the market for powerful cruisers by lifting the engine from the VFR750 and slotting it in a cruiser chassis. The engine itself was beautified by the addition of chrome and some extra fins, and by the chromed 4 into 4 exhaust. The seat was kept very low, at 28 inches, with the passenger seat being detachable. The all new frame was complemented by 41mm forks, dual shocks, and a single disc on the front. A drum brake was used on the rear. A few internal changes were made to the VFR engine for use in the Magna, including a different crankshaft, a 5 speed transmission and chain driven cams. Smaller carbs were also utilized. The changes resulted in a stronger mid-range pull, and a very broad band of power. In 1993, power was 78.2bhp@9000rpm, with torque of 48.2ft/lb's@7250rpm. Wet weight was 541lb's.
