*nods* I don't dispute it's probably true in general. I simply point out that nobody who actually tested their 700S field coil came up with a resistance of >...
Mm. Not, probably, abnormal. There can be a certain amount of drag in gear, even with a good clutch. Try sticking the bike on the centerstand and see if your...
I don't know the technical reason as to why. I just took the advice from the previous owner of my NH. He was and older guy and a friend of the family that...
Reid, when you say 93 octane produces less power that makes me wonder if this is the reason my NH doesn't go any faster than 85-90 MPH. Not that I go that...
I agree wholeheartedly that running high octane in an engine that is designed to run on 87 is a waste of money. Not sure what to think about the intake...

does anyone running regular gas have a problem with pinging? that is the only reason i have ran premium, because i was worried about pinging with and...
What is under the cover on the left side (as you are sitting on the bike) below the head. I took it off last night. It looked like there was an oil pressure...
I have an 83 CB Nighthawk and I was told by the guy who works on my bike that I should run regular instead of premium. I've neverr had a problem with pinging...
Travis, My '83 does fine with the 87 octane. Here in St. Louis, there's no place that I have found that DOESN'T mix at least 10% ethanol with the gas. It's...
REID, I have the x-tended warranty on my 03' nh750 and had the tach replaced at 25k miles.Is it really $350 to replace? You might try a m/c salvage yard if...
Travis, Gasolines are formulated both for altitude and climate. In the hot summer months, gasoline contains fewer volatiles than it does in the colder months....
sorry about the delayed response. The glass is definitely deterioated, but no leaking. I found that it was seeping from the slave cylinder at the bottom. I'm...
Very cool indeed!! And a great application. I want one of them. How the heck to they ship them without driving the UPS guy crazy? -Reid ... balancer ... rod....
I was looking at a new Yamaha FZ6 the other day and I got into a discussion with the salesman about the RPM range of inline 4 engines. I mentioned that I had a...
I'm helping my brother with his '84 Nighthawk CB700SC. We can hear a "miss" at idle thru midrange, but the bike seems to start and run fine. We replaced the...
That is the rotor and the pulse generators, which send timing signals to the spark computer. Inboard of them is the left crankshaft seal. Above and to the...
Another Newbie Question... I figured out how to set the shock pre-load setting by turning the bottom part of the shock when the bike is on the centerstand....
Thats your shock dampening adjustment. B. englandtj <yahoo@...> wrote: Another Newbie Question... I figured out how to set the shock pre-load setting...
I wonder what he meant by "Detuning ? " I think you were both right, to an extent. I consider engine speeds below 4K to be lugging, at least when any kind of...
Honda list price is something like $420, just for the tach guts. Glad the Mity-Vac worked for you. They are handy to have around. -Reid ... replaced at 25k...
So turning the bottom part of the shock is the Preload adjustment and the black thumbwheel is the rebound adjustment? Thanks. -TJ '85 CB650SC ... our homepage...
Gracias Hawk Amigos - not worried, was just getting a bit mystified by the stubborn stringy crap that wouldn't soap out. I've cleaned and rinsed in a tub...
