The magna is still one of the sexiest bikes to ever touch youtube. Ever since I had seen it waaaay back in the early days, i've wanted one in the state it's currently in. And the sound. Oh my the sound! Glad to see it coming back, Dude. By far the best bike you've ever owned.
Dan is the only man to add twice as many projects and be absolutely sure he can get everything done twice as fast with twice the work. not to mention all the "not a project" vehicles he gets every couple of months 😂
This bike single-handedly had me searching the classifieds for a Magna for myself. The sounds it makes are just incredible. It has the raw, classic look of a harley but still carried a bit of that agressive street bike stance, but also a bit of rat rod/bobber flare. Good to see you succeeding in your ventures and just living life. Mad respect from me for giving it this much needed love, really reminds us of those good, simple times, just as much as it does you. Its throwback time!
This is the fucking bike that got me started on this channel. Good GOD i miss seeing this thing. This bike ALONE sold me on never wanting to build a chopper out if a harley. It sounds so MEAN!!!! Dude thank u for still having this!
Didn’t expect this, just this week I was watching through the old build videos since I’m looking to buy one for myself this spring. Happily surprised to see this magnificent piece of art back on the channel!
Man it’s been so great seeing all the og motovloggers reviving old projects or getting back to their old format. Takes me back to being 18 on my R6. The icon variant was everywhere. Good times
Man, that first start up and rev, even if it sounded awful, still sounded badass. You and I have both grown together, bud. I bought my Magna not long after you got yours back. Sold it but I'll buy another one day.
Wow since you last worked on the magna, i have gotten a job, gotten my motorcycle licence, gotten a 2022 Ninja 650 and enjoy the heck out of riding. You were the trigger to start riding for me man
I remember back when you were tracking it down after having sold it and i came back to you i think it was with a dent in the tank or you flipped it shortly after getting it back and made a dent in the tank. That bike has character!
dude I can't believe that I started watching around 2013ish and I'm having a hard time believing that I am still watching you 11 years later. like that shit is crazy to me, I remember the old intros and videos and even the old channel like Danny tacoma or Danny taco or something.. anyways I'm still so happy to see you around and still doing your thing (no pun intended) but ive just genuinely liked watching your videos and your style of video all throughout the years and at different houses different bikes different vehicles, its just refreshing. I appreciate you
Super stoked to see this bike again! Your old videos of this bike are what got me to buy my first magna and start riding back in 2018. Also, I believe your pipes are Jardine Drag Pipes. They don't make them anymore and they are pretty rare. Those pipes alone are worth more than most Magnas as a whole.
Dan, I've been watching your for years. You always make great content even when life gets in the way. Keep kicking ass! Plus I love seeing you in all of the instagram reels comments meme'ing around.
I find it crazy how I'm watching this as an adult with a child and the last time I watched the magna I was in schoooool. DAAAN you are the reason I have a bike now. Thank you bro.
Dan, when I tell you I've been watching you for so long. Life has been so tough recently, and you have been inspiring me to get my shit in order. And man, when I tell you I shed a fucking tear seeing the Magna run again holy fuck did that make me emotional. I love you, Dan. I'll always support you. u have helped me through so much of my life.
So stoked to see her back again! Fell in love with it when you bought it back and working on it years ago. I bought an 02 magna back in 2019 because of it. Glad to see it back!!
Used to watch your channel all the time when I was younger last time I remember watching was couple years ago when you first started the dually build. You recently popped back up and it’s crazy to see what you’ve done in those couple years first thing I thought was where’s the magna. Anyways glad to be watching again thanks for all the content.
This video made my day ...been a fan for a long while and I remember the magna being the bike I always compared to my marauder ...can't give it up. Last year I got mine running and was just what the doctor ordered ... And I gave my ninja a break ... I hope you get many miles this year on her
Love seeing this bike, inspired to build my own bobber at 16 years old. 7 years later its sitting in the garage with a spun camshaft but just got a promotion and finished my degree so i hope i'll have time to fix it up again ❤
The magna is back . I bought one cause of this channel years ago . Rebuilding it now . Can't wait to get back on this beast . Don't let it go this time
After watching since the sharpie bike days and finally just in the last month getting my first “real boy” bike and getting it fixed up and riding its wholesome to see the magna revived.
Dan, I know you get this shit all the time but I started watching when I was probably 14 I’m now 23, built a bobber from a Yamaha 650 vstar like the Magna, had a few bikes since then finally got my first litre bike and every time I turn the throttle it reminds me of listening to you ride on your vlogs back in the day, big love dude so many of us are on two wheels because of you
She missed you. Been waiting patiently to be carefully put back together, and ready to shred like she used to. I’ll be honest, I was grinning like an idiot when you fired it up and just rode out without a saddle. Hearing you rip around the lot, it’s easy to hear the absolute joy radiating back through the camera. Even when you’re off screen. Super happy to see the old girl back on her feet, can’t wait to hear how she talks after the tune work. Keep it up dude!! Your content has always been a pillar of inspiration and relatable humanity.
Not sure how deep of work WOW will do with those V4 carbs, I know lots of shops refuse to touch them unfortunately. Hopefully they are willing to jump into it. The best thing they could use is pulled completely apart, ultra sonic cleaned, and then cleaned again. Im not sure if those carbs are already jetted for those pipes, but if they aren't I'd say that could help squeeze a bit more power out.
For the love of all things holy... we need a FAT AK RIP on the Magna! The Magna reveal from like 2015 is still one of my favorite videos on the entire platform!
I was so fuckin excited when I saw this on IG, and to see you knock it out here and get it this close to bein ready for another MotoVlog rocks, man! Can't wait to see your next vid riding this OG beast!
this specific bike is the reason i fell in love with motorcycles i bought a 94 magna last year for 300 from a buddy as far as i know it needs carbs rebuilt and a new wiring harness
I went back and watched your “The magma returns” video and you said the exhaust are American Eagle pipes and you removed the baffles for anyone wondering. It’s crazy you’ve been doing RU-vid for 10 years and I’ve been watching that long 😊
Dan, not sure if you’ll see this, but I’ve been watching your channel since I was in high school and I’m now 27 and I have a magna of my own. However, I haven’t ridden it in about 2 years due to maintenance lol hopefully this gives me the inspiration to get mine running again as well!
I feel like a kid watching him get it running and riding… I’m giggly and shit lmao and can’t wait to see it on the road again. I keep flashing back to her reveal a couple years ago and man… I’m fucking excited
Hate me for saying it but ever since this bike was introduced to the channel you will not change my mind that its my favorite sounding motorcycle… i love it❤
Ride on dude!!! I know your going to take it somewhere but I'm willing to bet the float is stuck on that one carb! Easy fix, but I understand not wanting to screw with all that. Stoked to see the cycle content back!
I'm not even gonna lie, the other day when I saw the magna running on ya TikTok. I nearly lost it. Been what it feels like FOREVER ago since last seen it up and going. Now you got me cruising marketplace again and most likely going out and buying a minty 98 with 6K miles on it for 2k lmao
Just as I was thinking about getting one, must be a sign. I’ve been watching since I was like 13 and I’m 20 now, that bike literally started my love for magna’s
