Road Trip Videos: Number 1 - Peoria Illinois

January 7, 2024 I saw a 1985 Honda V65 Magna for sale on Cycle-Trader.com.
Forty years ago, I used to have a V65 Magna, an '83, but the same thing for most intents & purposes. I bookmarked the ad, & told myself if it was still around in April, I was going to buy it.
Time went by, I paid off my bills, kept checking on it, & it was still there, so April 1st, I had my bank do the wire transfer, & it was (financially) mine. I still had to get to Peoria from Portland, & get the bike back to the west coast.
So, I booked a one way flight to St. Louis April 4th, and reserved a rent-a-car to drive to Peoria April 5th.
Then, the airline broke my plane & cancelled my flight. So I had to rebook everything for the 9th & 10th. This time the trip included a 14 hour layover in Denver. No problem. I managed to get a few naps in.
Anyway, I made it to Peoria, and got my bike. I loaded my gear onto it, & headed out to the highway for a 2,000 mile ride. Along the way, I remembered just how powerful, exciting, & just a little bit scary this bike can be.
Thanks to the folks at World Of Powersports. This wouldn't have been possible without your patience while I took three months to buy it.
