1984 Honda Magna 750CC

So after three weeks of down time the magna lives once more. the cam chain tensioner spring broke, how I don't know, maybe due to age and sitting for 10 years? either way it was a pain to diagnose and a pain to fix. Had to pull one cam and then the tensioner, did this in frame and I wish it had been the front cylinders not the rear. bought a spring at cycle north ($4) cheap I thought. got it all back together today, all that is left is the voltage regulator (bike will not start once hot) and now the large fuel line that connects the primary to the secondary tank. (Hoping the bike wayne got has one, and that he has no use for it) All in all a learning experience.
I did order two springs when I bought them, does anyone think this was  a random occurance or should I spend the time pulling the other side apart and changing that? I don't see it being a regular thing to break but if one can than another can. Opinions?

  Just happens to be a voltage reg. on the Interceptor. The actual engine is gone but most of the electrical is there, complete set of carbs, airbox and a couple misc. pieces. Front brake master cylinder still works, clutch cylinder is there. good set of clocks. Tank is not dinged but no key to look inside, tail cowl, seat and tail light. I just want the suspension. Call me tomorrow about coming for what you want. Thanks and a beer owed to Syncro. CHEERS.

Awesome. I can come by anytime you want tomorrow. I am for sure going to be downtown and out and about at 11:00. not sure where you live but anywhere works. Also I will take anything you don't need. I have only put 70 km on this bike and don't know what else may fail. thanks. where would I bring beer for "syncro".

   Stripped the VFR to the bare frame after you left Ben. The i.c. igniters (c.d.i.s) from the tail which is what I actually think is wrong with your bike along with the fuel pump and the rest of the electrical. After some measuring it became obvious that adapting the suspension to my Suzuki is not viable. Ended up with a small pile of goodies to keep. Everything else is available to whomever wants them at the price I paid-0. The rear axle, swing arm pivots and steering head bearings all still had grease on them and everything came apart easy. CHEERS.

I can come grab it all on Wednesday if that works for you Wayne. I am tied up until then. Thanks
