On my 250 (was my only transportation at the time) i had a 45mile commute daily, what helped me with top end speed was going to a smaller front sprocket (14 tooth if i remember correctly). She lost some low end torque from it, but i got enough speed to do major highways (not safe when your max spee

I run 38-40 PSI in my bikes but it depends on the tires recommended max pressure. Which for me is 42 PSI. Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T -Original Message- From: Christy Deering Sender: nighthawk_lovers@googlegroups.com Date: Fri, 22 Mar 2013 14:29:39 To: Reply-To: nighthawk_lovers@google

Hey there! Thanks for your helpful answers! I'm 170, not that one should ask a chick that question...I figured the bike was rated at least at 300 or 350, but the bike itself is only about 350 lbs, I think, so I wouldn't dare load it with more weight than that, jesus...I took a similarly sized fr

Hey there, I live in Austin, TX. I would love to meet fellow Nighthawk owners in the area! I've seen a couple around town, but mostly it's scooters and Harleys. :) I'm also pretty sure I'm the only Nighthawk owner who rides year-round, since it's my only vehicle. Besides legs. I mentioned the

Also, more than one person has suggested trying out a 750 Shadow as a good upgrade, and since I'm about to make my last payment on Gladys tomorrow, actually, I'll be free to look around sometime this summer for an upgrade. I'd love to stick with Hondas - I've really enjoyed my Nighthawk, but mor

Hey there - sorry this took me so long to respond to! Thank you for your helpful comments! By "backfiring," yes, there is a popping sound, but it's only when I release the clutch right when I'm opening up the throttle, never any other time. Everyone seems to be suggesting Seafoam, so I'll look
