Yes, and at 105 I was the one who backed down, not the bike. It seemed to have some left. I think if I took the windscreen off and tucked down it would at lest...

I just recently bought (for nothing) an 83 nighthawk 650. The only thing wrong with it is the muffler has a thumb sized hole on the underside. It needs to be...

Yea, I don't exect total accuracy. But I had was passing traffic that was doing 70+ like they were parked. I had one small car try to follow me, he dropped...
Don't tell anyone, but most of the "speed checkers" are set off at least 5mph on purpose. And I suppose I could have my brother check my speed, he is a Sgt...

I was checking my 84 CB700SC before my ride tomorrow and something did not look right at the front wheel. I checked it out and then checked the shop manual and...
Hi Jay, Let me make sure I have this right. You were GIVEN one of the best motorcycles ever built, it runs and works fine, and you say you don't want to spend...
Tam, I can't recall for sure, but it seems to me that at 70 mph an '83-85 650 it should be turning around 5k rpm, maybe less. Are you sure your clutch isn't...
I thought I'd post an update. When I pulled the stator and checked the wire harness between it and the regulator/rectifier plug, I found a 1/4 inch section of...
