This makes it something of a rarity these days.I happened upon one when the seller’s garage had to be cleaned out and the Magna, which had sat untouched under a tarp for 13 years had to go. The VF500C V30 Magna lasted only two model years, and was not produced in large numbers. When Honda introduced the first of its new VF series of liquid-cooled 750cc V4 motorcycles in 1982, the earth moved under the feet of every other motorcycle manufacturer who had poured development money into their next generations of air-cooled in-line DOHC fours.Honda’s new V4 motors allowed a narrower engine package, very minimal vibration, a whole new level of performance, and expectations of very long engine life thanks to liquid cooling.By 1984, Honda expanded the range up to the 1100 cc powerhouse V65 Magna and Sabre, and down to the VF700C Magna, 500 cc V30 Magna and Interceptor.
