Usually the Honda service manual only shows exploded views, parts removal order
and torque specs. It's up to you to figure out how to get the parts off.
Clymers are the best IMHO, but the Honda service manual is handy since
Clymers/Chiltons don't usually show exploded views.

The Honda branded service manuals are really awesome, and only a couple
bucks more than a chilton's or Clymer type manual. If you are reasonably
familiar with things like basic diagnostics and simple mechanics, just get
the Honda book. If not, also pick up a Clymer's for the "for novices" type

I must have a rare one. A 93 with 45k miles, tach is still rock solid and

Just got a 2001 Nighthawk 750 and the rpm gauge is boucning all
over.
It was working properly then just started this irratic behavior.
When I tap it on the housing while running it boucnes also.
Any suggestions on what to do to fix it?
Maybe a loose wire?

First time I rode a newer bike and put the kickstand down it died. Freaked

Would you say a 175 would make a decent 'around town' bike, 40-50mph speeds
