[QUOTE="Trfsrfr, post: 207318, member: 3959"] [B]The $100.00 Honda Magna 700 -[/B] So I picked up this ratty Magna, now I am wondering what to do with it. Here is what I know; * It runs, and it runs pretty well. Rev's good, sounds good and healthy even though it sounds like it's been sitting awhile and needs carb maintenance. * Has a transmission problem. Drops in and out of gear and "catches" for lack of a better term. * 48,000 miles. * Electrical system seems to be functioning properly; horn, lights and gauges work. * Needs 2 tires * Needs paint - seller's girlfriend decided she would paint it silver. * Needs seat recovered. * Needs brake and clutch master cylinders * Needs little things, fuel petcock, headlight, coolant switch, gear-shift lever, battery, etc. * Fuel tank needs work. * All in all it appears to be a complete bike. * KBB trade-in vale is $1130, suggested retail is $1920. [ATTACH=full]29600[/ATTACH] Thought or recommendations? Restoration project, parts bike, or the scrap pile? [/QUOTE]
