Rider Profile

Best For	Big-bore muscle cruiser best suited to experienced riders who can respect its explosive V4 power; not a beginner machine.
Purpose	A power cruiser built for straight-line thrills and relaxed boulevard cruising, with enough grunt to embarrass sportbikes of its day.
Rider Fit	Heavy at 590 lb with a low cruiser seat, forward controls and wide bars; smooth liquid-cooled V4 with shaft drive.
Character	The legendary V65 Magna: a rocket in cruiser clothing, famously one of the fastest production bikes of 1983, smooth yet ferocious.
Not Ideal For	Not for novices, off-road use, tight track work, or riders wanting a nimble, feather-light commuter.
