Its been sometime since I last posted here. But, since then I have racked up about 3,000 mi of commuting. I have had my hawk for over a year now and I am...
Can't comment on the journey but from here near Greensboro to the Boone area?is one of my favorite day rides. I love the scenery up there. Steve [Non-text...
... This question awaits Serp's input, but I'll add my two cents. You're not crazy, it should be a fun ride. Do as many miles per day as you are comfortable...
I've got about 5,000 miles on my oem Dunlops and the center tread grooves on the rear tire are all but gone. Side tread is in decent shape. This feels like...
pacnwfoto hit on most of it. Plot the way using the most direct route but all backroads, even if it's a little longer it will seem shorter. 400 miles a day is...
That's about right on the mileage. I like the Kenda Chalenger for the rear tire. I used to like 34 psi in my tires but I didn't commute with mine. Serp....
... It isn't unusual to need a new rear tire around 8K miles. Assuming no burnouts, I suspect you ride mostly on straight roads or your daily route is over...
I run the recommended 29 PSI and I'm on my third rear (just got it last week)?and second front tire (counting the originals). The bike has 27K on it. This is...
Thanks for the tire pressure replies. So, how about sizing? With the limited options in 120/90's, what about 130/90's? I've read about the clearance issues...
... I hope you're not. I'm planning a trip from Cleveland, OH to New Orleans on my nighthawk in June. About 3000 miles round trip. I expect it to be a...
I only got about 5k on mine as well. The cost of the tire along w/ the low mileage has me trying the Kenda Challenger this time around. 1/2 the price, so even...
A fellow that used to post here (Patrick Henry) rode a Suzuki GZ250 from Tennessee to Hyder, Alaska (and back!). His biggest complaint was the winds of the...
... HornFiammFreewayBlaster i've got one, and highly reccomend it, an easy fit with the included hardware, took about 10 min.. much louder than stock, and...
... His second complaint was the bolt upright riding position of the feet- forward cruiser-style GZ which caused road shocks to hammer his spine. Fortunately,...
Consider redoing your seat with comfier padding as discussed in earlier threads. If you're fine, great!, but you won't want to be a thousand miles from home...
Hello all- Do any of you guys have a suggestion on where to find an owner's manual online for a 1994 Nighthawk? I reckon they are all the same from 91-99? so...
... The first manual issued with the 91~92 model was about 86 pages. Last time I looked the 2003 was up to 206 pages. Most of the growth has been stupid...
Thanks. I'll check out Helm's website... I got the Honda service manual from ebay a few weeks ago... do you think buying the owner's manual would be...
Hey thanks a lot for all that info, much appreciated. I'll probably wait to see if one comes along somewhere down the line. Sometimes it's nice to know what...
Just heard on the news today they are estimating prices of $9-$10.00 a gallon by the year 2010 if oil hits $200.00 a barrel. Guess we'll have to figure out a...
Thanks everyone. I will defiantly take the advice and re attach my windshield and look into reworking my seat. Any other ideas pop up let me know. Its time to...
