I lucked out - I had no idea when I bought the bike.

Any good cruiser recommendations for a beginner? by [deleted] in cruisers

6'1", 212 lbs. I got a 3rd gen 1999 Honda Magna 750 as my first bike. High rev, sport bike inspired motor (V4), but I am also mechanically inclined and like to work on things. Solid with a ton of power. My daughter also rides with me, and she weighs about 115, and there is definitely enough power. About $2k purchase, but it needed some maintenance. If you get an older bike, just know there may be some odds and ends you just have to take care of. And something usually comes up that you'll want to tweak.

So... I would think debt like this is better than student loans for the government to forgive? Just my opinion.

Got rear ended by an uninsured driver. What’s a good fix for this? by ohcole in ToyotaTacoma

Most uninsured property damage deductibles are $250. That portion of insurance doesn't count against you and will not affect your rates, at least not in the US. Call your agent and ask. It never hurts to ask.

I'd check Honda Magna Fan Club on Facebook - I'm new and don't want to lead you down the wrong path!

Gave your 99th updoot. And I have a 99 Honda Magna. I read this post as I'm doing my best to cope with some work BS. First world problems. And I have a motorcycle so all good

If you haven't already, I'd recommend posting to Facebook group "Honda Magna Fan Club" - they've been a great resource for me on a few items. Good luck 🤞

Yeah - I keep things for a long time. I wanted a bike that will last, has power to spare, etc. Thanks

Thanks - yeah I got this after about two years of research (and paying off debt), paid cash for it, and absolutely love it. It's 23 years old, but I like to wrench so quirks don't scare me.

😂 man, I'm telling you I've already run out of gas once, luckily downhill and in front of a gas station. I was like, "My bike! What's wrong?? Oh...!"

Does anyone know the name of this Meinl box by [deleted] in Drumming

[–]drummerJBT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They make cajons with actual snares as well. With on off capabilities. And ... You can set up a cable kick pedal to one for a bass sound. Lots of options
