Segment: Custom/Cruiser
Production years: 2000, 2001
A sport bike engine powering a cruiser? Is this even possible? If the donor bike is the Honda VFR, and if the receiving end is Honda's Magna, this thing is not only possible, it is astonishing. With a V4 heart and its proven grunt, the 2000 Magna is a cruiser like no other.
With power and torque on tap, a glorious V4 sound and free-flowing 4-into-4 exhausts, the bike is as sweet a city slicer as it is a worthy companion for longer trips. Adding in some touring saddlebags and a windscreen will instantaneously transform the Magna in a road-dominating beast.
