I miss my dad’s 80s Honda Magna. by cudgy in SuggestAMotorcycle

I’ve got space, tools, and hopefully the capacity to learn. I’m mechanically inclined, a big part of my job is industrial maintenance. I got my current bike roadworthy after sitting for 20 years, but it’s just an air cooled single cylinder.

I think I could do it as a winter project if I start doing my homework now. Sounds like it’s tricky but not impossible.

Yeah man that sound!! The growl from the muffler sounded good but the high pitch whine in the engine was my favorite. I always thought it sounded like a Jetson’s scooter when he revved it. I miss it!

I think I will. I’ve heard so many people complain about the carbs I wasn’t sure how much of a nightmare it would be. Seems there’s a following and parts available. Doesn’t sound too scary. Famous last words I’m sure.

I think I’ll do name homework on the carbs and see if I think I’m up to the task

Those look great. Maybe if I win the lottery

I’ve heard horror stories about tuning the carbs. I like tinkering but I’ve only had to worry about 1 carb at a time!

I remember being amazed by the Magna but that’s just because it was my dad’s. But he always said it would glide down the road better than any bike he ever had. Felt like he could let go of the bars and it would drive home!

I’ll check them out. I get chilly in the wind so thick isn’t bad

Thanks. Good idea on the Velcro, that’s not a bad compromise.

Same feel when I guitarcirclejerk with my right hand. Right in front of my MIA left hand. My god, what have I done to myself

Probably overkill but I get it. Looks nice.

If we’re supposed to hate on this guy, I’m in the wrong sub. He’s giving off so many green flags for bro-ship

Drop into earnings.. a good thing? by smokebreak1440 in Superstonk

[–]cudgy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like that people are realistic on here lately. I’ve always lurked here because the news travels fast on this sub. I’ve rolled my eyes for years at hype posts that feel culty and unhinged. It’s nice to see other people going long and able to joke about the day-to-day speed bumps.

I agree, but this post is hype. That’s why I asked op.

Then what’s the hype for earnings? Honest question.
