When I had my 99 250 and needed a replacement,  I would get the normal

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] will a 1983 starter for nh 650 work on an 83 nh650

[Kyle Munz]

I doubt it. For the most part the 82 and 83 650 are completely different
bikes.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Battery for an '85 650 Nighthawk

[Kurt Nolte]

Can you measure your current battery? The site I'm looking at (Impact
Batteries) lists the YB12AL-A as 5.3" x3.15" x6.3", same as my VFR battery.
If that's the case, and that Bikemaster doesn't fit either, get a Motobatt
MB12U. It fit beautifully in the Viffer.

[Nighthawk Lovers] Clutch job

[Kurt Nolte]

I have a Nighthawk 750 that needs a new set of clutch plates. At 65k miles
and at least three new riders' worth of wear I feel that's reasonable.

Does anyone on the list have tips? Anyone have the specialty nut (?) for
the job?

EBC kit good quality, or should I spring for the real deal Honda parts?

The top case will be of big help for the passenger. It also helps the

be on the bike :)

A battery tender is compatible with a n AGM battery. They are the same
chemistry as a regular lead acid, just in better packaging.

Don't do it, not worth the risk if you get a over charging issue.  Electrolyte 
battery should last, just make sure your not over charging and keep it topped

That's what I am already doing with my other bikes Tommy! this one also
needs some work. But I agree, in other circumstances I would have got it.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Battery for an '85 650 Nighthawk

[Tommy Hill]

Yeti, they said they didn't and couldn't have an AGM. Had acid and could order 
a lithium.  As a helicopter mechanic in the Army, when they first came out, and 
an airline pilot watching the Dreamliner issues, not real sure about lithium.  
What do you think?

[Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Hard Bags for '96 Nighthawk

[ewun]

Sorry I wasn't more specific.  Yes - you do need a specific NH750 mounting 
kit and they're no longer in production.  That said, I did find one from 
(New Old Stock) from a supplier in Australia (online) - where their version 
of the NH750 (called CB-SevenFifty I believe it was called) was a bolt-on.

Are you sure? I've not seen that requirement in ages.  I've gone to all AGM

Did the batteries plus not have it avaiable or just not in stock? I was a
tech for then for years and never had a power sports battery we couldn't
find something to work (except a very old Indian 6v but I ended up
building him a custom pack for that!)

[Nighthawk Lovers] New ride!

[zgotts]

 
 

 
Picked up a new addition... 2010 Tiger 1050. Wanted something better for 
2-up. Will be keeping both nighthawks, plan is to make the 750 more of a 
solo rider bike. So I might have an OEM backrest up for grabs soon

I haven't done that mod but I doubt any headlight bucket is rain proof.
They always have a drain hole in them, and are rusty on the inside.
