I've been wanting to expand the scope of BOTM a bit to include non first Gen V4's for a while now. Both to recognize some really nice bikes and to increase the availability of candidates since postings in the Photo Gallery have dropped off significantly.

This bike seems to be the perfect candidate to do that. I know nothing about these bikes other than they seem to be rare. I'll let those who do know them educate the rest of us who don't.



Congratulations Doc4pcs, your 1987 Super Magna is March's Bike of the Month.

Charlie,

I think many of us recall the adversity you dealt with before getting this gem and getting it on the road. That makes the recognition here even sweeter as I see it.

Congratulations.

I've always loved the styling of the super, I just wished they'd kept the 1100 mill to make those really evil.

Very nice bike!

Very nice!  I have always felt that from directly behind the super magnas the four exhausts looked like chrome mortar tubes or small rocket launcher tubes.   :thumb :thumb
