It's just like Texas, only in reverse. You have your Air conditioning for the heat in summer, we have furnaces for the cold in winter. Heated house, into a car you start early to warm up, then into a heated office. Advantage goes to you though, as riding a motorcycle in 100+ degree heat is prefer

The valve covers are chromed. Cost about $100.00 bucks. My dad had it done as a surprise for me. I learned later chroming valve covers can make them hard to seal and not dissipate heat as well (long thread on this site), but once we got it sealed properly I have had no problems. It actually st

Whatever you decide, good luck. The Nighthawk is a good bike. I bought an 83 650 last year and love it (though being a bigger guy I wish it was just a little bigger for longer trips). It runs, but I have found that the previous owners tended to only do what they needed to do in order to keep i
