Hi Everybody, Don't mean to get off topic here, but as you guys know the Nighthawks and Honda well, I thought some of you might have been on a Magna before. I am currently riding a 1983 Honda Nighthawk 650. I have put a lot of work into it and love it. However, it is killing my back. I am 6' 3" and about 280 pounds. Yes, some of that is a decent beer gut and I could stand to lose 30 pounds, but a lot of it is a long torso and wide shoulders. If I put a moderately long ride (80-100 miles) in on the Nighthawk my back usually tightens up the next day. I am thinking about upgrading to an early 80's V65 Magna. It looks like a bigger bike and the motor upgrade would be nice. I have not had the chance to sit on one yet. I just don't see many around. Just wondering if anyone can offer a size comparison between the two? Also, if anyone has owned one is there anything I should be looking for when shopping for one?
