Cleveland Leather Awareness Weekend in conjunction with Better Existence with HIV, Kaos Kontrol and Touche Chicago is pleased to announce our biggest raffle yet!

Beginning at our Chicago CLAW Nation Party, you can purchase raffle tickets to win a vintage 1984 Honda Magna V65 motorcycle. All procedes of the raffle will go to Better Existence with HIV and CLAW Charities. Tickets will be sold at all CLAW Nation events throughout the country with the final drawing taking place at CLAW 8 April 24-26, 2009. Mid-late `80’s editions of the Guinness Book of World Records list the V65 Magna as the world’s fastest production road motorcycle with a “design speed” of 173 mph. Magazine test articles have calculated that a theoretical redline in top gear would yield between 173 and 184 mph. Many test articles have measured actual V65 Sabre and Magna top speeds at around 135-140 mph. Most enthusiasts wrote in claiming to have reached 120- 140 mph, 130 mph being most common…

1984 Honda Magna V65 Specs:

The V65 Magna; an 1100cc V-Four producing more power than any other Honda at the time. The engine was universally praised for its broad range of massive power. The V65 engine achieved perfect primary balance, and its narrow dimensions belied its capacity. The riding position was a little too relaxed for long trips, but on short hops it was quite comfortable. Suspension was almost sport-bike-taut, possibly to deal with the shaft drive effect. Power in 1983 was 105bhp, with torque of 68.86ft/lb’s. Wet weight was 574lb’s.
