Jon, I received the manual before christmas, but without web at home (better this way) I couln't thank you, so: Thank you, also for the CD. I hope you and...
I saw an ad in Classic Bike a couple years ago for a vac-pac type deal.. you roll the bike in a big poly bag and then use a pump and a fitting to pump out the...
... I keep mine outside! Under a cover, but I don't have a garage so I have to make due. California is not particularly humid, so we don't have the same rust...
... Try to avoid steel wool, it will scratch the chrome and the plating on bolts and invite rust. Instead, use Turtle Wax Chrome Polish with a brush. Keep...
I am from Argentina, I have a CB250 1998 in excellent state ¿Someone knows which is the maximum velocity that can give this motorcycle, its consumption, and...
Hello, The maximum velocity is variable from bike to bike, but you can have from 120 to 130km/h in flat road. Mine has done 150 with a strong back wind. It...
Its funny you mention the ninja 500. Because before I bought thes 250 I was a sportbike fan. I rode one once. It was my only bike ride before the motorcycle...
This is in reply to Vanapagar's question of how fast the CB250 Nighthawk can travel (Velocity). I have a new 2006 USA Model with a 15 tooth Countershaft...
Gang, My name is Neil Rodrigues. I own a 2006 Honda Nighthawk (along with 10 other bikes). I have had many bikes, boats and cars, and still do. I hold an A&P...
Thanks for the post Neil. Ten or so years ago I found out that most commercial crabbers around here did not use the Wal-Mart brand of outboard oil, but the J/E...
The number to guess was 36. Douglas Tunning came closest with 39 and gets the book. E-me off list with your snailmail addy and it will be on the way....
Gang, I see in Brendan's photo in our groups collection, and on his Non-USA bike, he has a nice looking rack and crab-rail. Is this available in the USA, or in...
I see them everywhere still. It just seems like such a sturdy, all-purpose bike... good for commuting, touring, city use. And such an important part of Honda's...
It's a combination of EPA regs requiring cleaner emissions and the "marketing geniuses" at Honda America. They have decided we either want a scooter, a crotch...
I was looking through the Hondas listed on E-Bait this evening. I saw an ad for a Honda 500 Interceptor. The ad said the owner had bought the bike last year...
... Thinking CBF250? I'm not sure (lent out my literature), but I think both the CBF250 and the 599/919's are in their "Hornet" series elsewhere. It seemed...
I haven't gotten it yet. Unfortunately the nighthawk 250 is left out. They do a rebel 250 I hear among others -- some scooters and a ninja 250. I can't wait...
Weren't these the hottest handling bikes of their time? I can understand wanting a larger bike with weather protection for long distance or something newer...
... They're under the control of the bean counters. We don't get the best, we get whatever generates the most cash flow (good business sense). If the...
... Here is a factoid to file away: older model bikes were not dropped from production because they had problems. Of all the machines I've been fortunate...
The CB1300 looks much like that one you have down there, except that it is liquid cooled (and oil cooled, no joke!), and of course bigger. I've seen these in...
I'd like to add to what Jon says. I own 12 motorcycles and the newest one is a 1982 Kawasaki KZ750 and I don't have to do anything to it I wouldn't have to do...
... Which, I recall, was made by Gilera. It was on the market at a time when the misconception was that Italian bikes, including Ducati, were time bombs...
