Re-installed the windscreen, and the pillion and back-rest!
Looks good, which windshield is that?
I dunno, it came with the bike, it is a Memphis shades and I think It was for a shadow. It works well and seems to be really nice quality. Better that the Honda one i have.
Nice bike 8)I really like the color!!
Thats a Hellcat from Memphis shades :grin: :grin: have the same one on the Orange bike
I like it. The added black looks very nice.
Thanks, as time passes there will be more black and less shiny. I put the screen and pillion and such on so i could take the wife to bike night, we did about 65 miles total, lots of bikes no magnas though. Now she wants a bike!!
Wa hoo perfect excuse for another Magna :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

Good Luck. Have her take the safety class. I effectively took the class with my wife. We both enjoyed it.
For sure, I'd probably go with a rebel 250 or a gz 250 for her first.
Thats my new lid in the foreground of the first pic btw...

Yep! My wife started with 250 Virago, then VLX 600 and now my old Magna is her new Magna. I got stuck with an old Valk tourer :D :D :D :D. Of course I have to ride the Magna now and then to make sure everything is running ok 8)..

Yep, and he constantly complains that she won't two up with him any more. :) If your wife starts riding her own bike, you probably won't be able to get her back on yours. Right Charles?
This is a case of, "Do as I say, not as I do." I bought the little VLX 600 from Charles and now my wife is learning to ride on it.
She actually started on a 250 Diamo, but almost gave up. She finds the 600 easier to ride.

That GZ250 is a neat looking little bike. They had a bunch of them at my motorcycle safety course. Too small for me though, I rode a Nighthawk.
Really nice work on that Magna.
The Magna looks great!
I went from passenger to MSF Rebel 250 to my Magna. I'd had riding experience in the 70's on a Kawasaki 175.
I'd have to have a really good reason to be a passenger again.

Like when your bike is broke and you want to go to the movie at Dave's cabin??
OOPS! - To use the internet to find a part to fix my bike!
Sorry about that - I forgot how I got there!
:lol:
Man how did you get those wheels so clean, I have tried everything and cant get mine to look that good. Maybe I need to take them off and clean and polish them. Looks good, Like the new lid as well.
I cleaned/degreased with simple green and a brush then used meguiars metal polish and a mothers mini power ball on a cordless drill....Flitz works great too..
