Motorcycle Repair: Hi Bill, I was wondering..., honda magna, drive shaft


Question
Hi Bill,
I was wondering if you had any info or suggestions for a fat tire kit. Was there any made for a 84 honda magna 700.

Answer
You can't do much with a drive shaft bike, as far as putting bigger rubber or wheels on the rear. Performance Machine or other shops can custom make wheels for many applications, but they are more than the cost of the bike you are putting them on.... I would be more concerned to know if you have a good oiling system on your bike to keep the cams alive...Honda V-4s are notorious for eating cams and having tensioner issues. Check the various V-4 websites for details.
