The '''[[Honda]] V65 Magna''' was one of the bikes that started the "muscle" cruiser bike category, very few bikes can compete in the amount of raw power produced. It is a water cooled 1100cc V4 engine with 116hp and 72ftlb of [[torque]], shaft driven 6 speed transmission, [[anti-dive]] front suspension with air adjust, the rear suspension infinite steping for [[compression damping|compression]]/[[rebound damping|rebound]]/dampening, the shaft drive is quiet/clean and maintenance virtually maintenance free, handlebars are adjustable up and down as well as forward and back, self canceling turn signals and hydraulic clutch. It was quite similar to the [[Honda VF1100S|V65 Sabre]].
