This was a purchase I made out of goodwill for some flakey pushy ungrateful redneck dreamer that couldn’t come up with the money. I’m looking for a working man with some merit to his life that would love a Super Magna and doesn’t need his sister to gather $2200 cash for a great bike.
The bike has only 16,000 miles and runs, shifts, and rides beautifully. It’s a 700cc V4 with a shaft drive, 6 speed tranny and all the gears are smooth as silk shifting and stay in gear until you click it into the next gear. I’ve never seen a cleaner 1987 anything. On Friday I’ll have the carbs synchronized and put some miles on it running fresh gas so there are no issues for the buyer and no worries. Fresh battery, oil change, extra filters, tank bag, and comes with a nice windshield.
The engine shines and the bike needs only a seat cover to really turn heads. Tires, fluids, and brakes are recently serviced as it was shipped to FL from Missouri with in the last year. $2200, no one will find a cleaner turn key bike anywhere. No payments, no free storage, no hassles. 🙂

Ok, so i’ve done some research, it seems the easiest way to clean the sheaves is with some steel wool and then some warm water and soap. If this isn’t a good idea then i’m open to suggestions for sure!!!
Also, when i took the side cover off and i look at my primary sheave it is shiny, it doesn’t look like there is any belt residue on it at all.
Should the sheave be shiney?
Right now there doesn’t seem to be any belt slippage at all, i’m just going through the grizz to make sure everything is in good working order!
Ok so what do you guys really think about the cooling effects of using royal purple. Do any of you guys use this oil? I think it’s pretty pricey where I’m at with it running about 17 bucks a quart. Totally worth it if the claims are true.

Just bought my first can am and I decided to go all out and got the XTP 1000.
The ride is amazing. It’s my first ever 4×4 as I always had race quads in the past. I do miss the lightweight of those quads and the manual shifting but I’m sure I’ll get use to this beauty!
Anyways, I’m here to ask some opinions. I’ve done a lot of research on this site and I couldn’t find a thread that related to my problem. I weight around 150-160 pounds and I did find the ride very stiff. I went for long rides today and adjusted on the go 3 different times. I started by adjusting the rear by putting the low speed compression to the softest settings. After, I did the other one at the bottom of the shocks at the softest as well. I love it when the rear is soft just as long as it doesn’t bottom out. I did the same with the front and I’ve noticed it was too soft as it bottomed out. Now I did twelve clicks going towards stiffness and for the low speed compression, I added half a turn on each side. Now the front is much better.
Just wondering if I should play with the shocks reload (like the springs) and should I even bother with the high speed compression? I’m not too sure about how it would change the ride.
I’m looking for a soft ride yet that can handle some rough riding.
I’m about to add a Yoshimura on this beauty as well. I want to gain as much power and find a way to get the maximum speed out of it.
If anyone is willing to share their time to give me suggestions, much appreciated.
I am trying to install a performance ATV snorkel on my 2009 renegade 800 I have the brass fittings on my air box but I don’t understand what is suppose to attach to the brass fittings?
