I have an offer on my 85 450 Nighthawk for an 82 650 Nighthawk. The 650 has 21000mi and just "needs the seat recovered" and possibly the master cylinder. My 450 needs another carb rebuild since the 1st guy didn't do it right the the gas tank creamed. It has 10685mi on it. Would it be a good trade

Just so happens I have one of those. Was reluctant to use it though for fear of denting or crushing the pipes. But now that I think of it, the centerstand will be taking most of the weight of the bike. The jack would just be tilting it toward the rear (like a fat kid and a skinny kid on a teeter

Alo, If you are really interested, I make my own hydrogen generators, and I can sell you one..  As for warranty, adding hydrogen to the mix makes your engine burn the fuel cleaner and therefore last longer. My old Dodge Dynasty's oil, at only 97,000 miles, was black 500 miles after an oil change

If you have access to a smaller floor jack (2 ton) then that is all you need. just jack it up enough so the rear wheel just touches the ground. I had my 85 700 on one for about a week while the body parts were getting painted.  You might want to put a rag between the jack and the pipes though.

One fix to that gorgeous patch design everyone's raving about. The first Nighthawk series ended in 1986, not 1985. The most recent series ended in 2008, so that's ok if you're including the 250cc. The 750cc ended in 2003. Jay S 92 NH750 South Florida --~--~-~--~~~--
