I just bought a pristine 1985 V65 Magna to complement my 1985 Vmax (997 original miles) love these 80's bikes........just raw and awesome!

[@butlercustoms]

That’s awesome! Congrats on a good find.

[@joemeyers4341]

So sad that another Magna is being parted out!!

[@butlercustoms]

I agree.

[@dutch_clutch8211]

Perfect timing on a Honda! My buddy asked me for some help with his carb! I appreciate the heads up on that one! Also my wife wants to know the dogs names if you wouldnt mind. She loves puppy dogs

[@butlercustoms]

That’s great. Glad I could help and wish we could have heard it fire up. Black lab is named Ruger. White dog is a visitor from time to time. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@dutch_clutch8211]

@butlercustoms oh man, same! It would have been awesome. Not a bad deal on parting it out though. Someone somewhere is going to be very happy! Again thank you for answering that for her. Got the worlds longest awwww for it

[@butlercustoms]

@@dutch_clutch8211 my pleasure

[@peterbrokas8801]

You should have bought it and flip it it’s a sweet historic muscle bike

[@butlercustoms]

It needed a little more than I would have wanted to put into it but I would have loved to hear it run. Thanks for watching.

[@jerrybigrig9475]

👍😎👍

[@allanmcelroy9840]

That is my bike, except 84 and black tank

[@butlercustoms]

Awesome. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@ThePeavey23]

Nice HONDA

[@butlercustoms]

It will make someone a good bike.

[@Shaunmclean12]

I just want to ask about the Honda. Did the customer find it on the side of the road, or was it a barn find, or was it on a farm in the paddock.
Doesn't matter what sort of bike it is, but I am sure if you own a bike, you tend to look after them.

[@butlercustoms]

Good question. I’ll ask him about the history of it when he comes to pick it up.

[@gravedigger8]

when you turned off key it lite on the 2nd plug

[@butlercustoms]

Correct. It was that faulty igniter box.

[@gravedigger8]

@@butlercustoms the last time i worked on my yamaha the spark was eratic on 1 plug, i checked the coils even bought a good used one and still the same, so i did a lot of tracing wires and never did get it fixed, i gave up on it and got a "piglet" aka sportster,

[@butlercustoms]

@@gravedigger8 it was probably a pesky igniter. But that’s a good upgrade to a sporty!

[@gravedigger8]

@@butlercustoms the bike is a yamaha venture royal 1200cc v4 engine, it dont have ignitors like that one has its got 1 box and only 1 plug wire out of the 4 was eratic, and i got rid of the piglet, i looked like a clown on a minibike lol

[@guypmiller]

too bad, but understandable

[@butlercustoms]

That’s the way it is sometimes. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@JeffMarcum]

Why does the title and thumbnail say it’s a Yamaha?

[@butlercustoms]

Because I’m an idiot. I was working on a Yamaha while editing this video and I guess my brain glitched. Nice catch! I’ll fix it asap! Thank you for pointing it out.

[@butlercustoms]

I just fixed it. Thanks again for catching my mistake!

[@JeffMarcum]

@@butlercustoms You’re welcome. Feel free to delete my original comment to hide the evidence so no one will ever know it even happened.🤣 By the way, I used to have a 1986 V65 Magna. I loved it. I now have a 2020 Yamaha VMAX. I love V4 engines.

[@butlercustoms]

@JeffMarcum I’ll leave it to remind me to pay better attention next time. Ha. Those vmaxs are fun bikes.
