honda magna 750
 

Would this bike be able to hold up to my weight? I weigh about 255. I'd love to buy a harley but I don't have the money. So my original question stands.

Oh yeah it would. I have one. I posted a pic of mine in the bike pic thread. I weigh about 240-250 and it handles me just fine. The x also love to ride with me, she is only 100 lbs soaking wet but the bike can still the weight just fine. On 2 ocassions I had to ride with me my gear (10-15 lbs), my friends gear (another 10-15 lbs) and him (another 150 lbs) after he smacked a deer and we had to ride to the next town to call for help. I have also given a ride to someone who was my weight also. So in a long sense yeah a magna could hande the weight. I am talking about my early 80's magna thought. But I would take a good guess tat a newer one would be built even better and be able to handle the weight.

Easily. I knew a guy around here that weighed about 280 and rode a Rebel, frequently had someone on the back too. Most bikes are overpowered, really, and the bike you're referring to is a solid mid-size cruiser. It'll handle your weight no sweat.

no problemo
