Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] will a 1983 starter for nh 650 work on an 83 nh650

I doubt it. For the most part the 82 and 83 650 are completely different bikes. On May 1, 2015 19:12, "Raymond Gomez" wrote: > can i use an 1982 cb650sc on a 1983 cb650sc, or are they different? > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Nighthawk Motor

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Battery for an '85 650 Nighthawk

Can you measure your current battery? The site I'm looking at (Impact Batteries) lists the YB12AL-A as 5.3" x3.15" x6.3", same as my VFR battery. If that's the case, and that Bikemaster doesn't fit either, get a Motobatt MB12U. It fit beautifully in the Viffer. Kurt On May 1, 2015 5:45 PM, "Tommy

[Nighthawk Lovers] Clutch job

I have a Nighthawk 750 that needs a new set of clutch plates. At 65k miles and at least three new riders' worth of wear I feel that's reasonable. Does anyone on the list have tips? Anyone have the specialty nut (?) for the job? EBC kit good quality, or should I spring for the real deal Honda part

The top case will be of big help for the passenger. It also helps the rider, because you know you can roll the throttle hard and she will still be on the bike :) On Fri, May 1, 2015 at 7:04 PM, zgotts wrote: > Top case is forthcoming. First rides were a bit terrifying for her. Haha > > On Friday

That's weird. AGM is still a wet battery. I know gel cells need special chargers, but I've never seen anything about an AGM battery needing one. Wonder what the rationale is. Kurt On May 1, 2015 9:35 AM, "Jeremy" wrote: > Don't do it, not worth the risk if you get a over charging issue. > Electr

Sorry I wasn't more specific. Yes - you do need a specific NH750 mounting kit and they're no longer in production. That said, I did find one from (New Old Stock) from a supplier in Australia (online) - where their version of the NH750 (called CB-SevenFifty I believe it was called) was a bolt-o
