[Nighthawk Lovers] Re: handguards for 1997 cb750
Melissa - If you're in the market for handguards and a light-ish windscreen, I can't say more about how much I enjoy the Shoei FM-2 NOS that are still on eBay. The eBay number is 170730394898 if you want to take a look. I have it on my '02 750NH, and it's just enough protection (wind & hands).

Careful with the type that clips to the bars. I got a set of Acerbis a few weeks ago that are designed for MX. As it turns out, MX bikes dont have as much crap on the bars that street bikes do. As a result, I cant get them to fit quite right - they kind of point downward since they hit some of the cables that are in the way. So... if you go with this style, try to find something that has a very deep 'dip' on the portion that connects from the bar to the handguard. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.

Melissa, I have the hand guards on my '02 Nighthawk 750 - the polisport. I put them on because I already have a windshield on that I like. If I didn't however I would go with the windshield that has the coverage like Sean says. The hand guards aren't easy to install. I had to do some drilling and it's not easy to adjust them to get the coverage. If you get hand guards get the ones that attach in just one place on your handle bars, not the ones that clamp on at one end and attach in the bar ends. The clamp on ones are all you need, Graham On Nov 16, 2011, at 9:56 PM, Hawaii Sean wrote: Melissa, Check out the post titles: "Our First Ride". Graham I think put polisport hand protectors on his bike. That post includes pictures so you'll know what they actually do. You might also think about getting a faring that has had coverage. I know SlipStreamer makes one that others in the group have eBay Item number: 190597098164 has a good picture for you. SlipStreamers are really easy to install and swap out so you can have one for the summer and one for the winter. It looks like the handguards are $30 to $40 on eBay. Good luck.
