I used to have an account here but I lost all the info and stuff when I got hacked a while back, so you may have seen this bike before, alas,

This bike has been bad luck. It's taken me down a flight of stairs, I've fallen off it, and been smacked in the face with the front tire. I hate this thing (oh but love it so much too!). For some reason before I thought it was a Murray Magnum ... I dunno why...

It's a murray.
It says MONTEREY MAGNA 2 AUTOMATIC on it.

On the neck or whatever it's called is printed with B2286718 ...not sure if that is the serial. Anyone know anything about this bike?

Bikes are not bad luck. Bike riders have bad luck sometimes, but the bike is almost always innocent of any wrong doing. that is a lovely bike, and the baskets are really cool; however, I don't know much about Murrays...Really styley tho.
