Thanks for all the options and offers and tips :)  Hopefully I can give 
back to the forum.  
 
I was looking around on Ebay and spotted a set of used forks for 100 bucks 
with a make an offer option.  Put in an offer for 40 bucks and it was 
accepted (plus shipping of 23 dollars) so 63 bucks.  They showed up today 
and the stanchions are straight, rusted up but the slide area is clean.

Yep, I'm watching another set right now for $75. That's still kind of hard
though since I bought the last set off a salvage bike for $40.

After having recently used my crash bars I second the advice to not crash
the bike. It sucks in more ways than one. That said, my crashbars did their
job and protected the engine and tank.

Here's the link to the Vietnamese outfit on Ebay
Had it bookmarked and didn't realize it.

Price is up since I bought mine, but they're still worthwhile.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-NIGHTHAWK-CB750-CB-750-Engine-Guard-bar-1991-2003-/400342175113?hash=item5d3640cd89&item=400342175113&pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr

If you use the search term "Nighthawk 750 engine guards" you'll turn
up others as well, but they are used or of inferior quality (the ones
from Thailland don't sound so hot).
