I'm all about the '83-'85. It's the epitome of the Nighthawks, in my
opinion. The 700S follows a close second.

Even though I'm stuck on the 700SC's, I think I could like this bike as
well. It is pretty. Wonder if my wife would go for me having three ... ?

I also own an '83 CB650SC Nighthawk. Fantastic machine! Most of the '84
parts will work on it
I never had a problem getting my insurance companies to pay, in full, for the

Print out the e-bay auction prices of bikes that are close to yours. If any

Actually you could move to some places in the Pacific Northwest and not
shovel snow there either. Seattle is known for a fairly moderate winter
temperature with snow that requires shoveling pretty rare. My wife and I

Don't forget the CB700SCs. 84 to 86. And good ones can be had for under
$2500. Maybe even $1500, if you get lucky. They are nice bikes (not that
the other Nighthawks aren't as well). Six speeds, shaft drive, nice balance
and looks.

Lived south of the Mason Dixon line for two years and the humidity almost

Yes. The 700S uses the 650 engine destroked and bored. Should be the same
case but I'm guessing. For more info go to http://hondanighthawks.net/

Hi folks. I have been studying Nighthawks ever since I had a bad
accident on a Suzuki Intruder 800 in 2004. I hit a construction with

It could also be that your throttle cables need either replaced or lubed.

On my '84 550 I've got a couple of problems which at my first novice
glance seem to be related to either some sort of blockage between the
