progrmr Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Came across this beauty Nighthawk thanks to Isaac's Papa in my other thread. 1993, 24K miles...I know, sounds old with a few miles under it's belt. Went to check it out tonight and it was just too perfect. I've wanted one of these for a couple of years but never came across the right one. I love the upright standard riding position, the heft of this old school machine and the simplicity of the whole package. This one is all of that and it's a real beauty to look at. It's now in my garage Pics don't do it justice, but no pics no bike right?? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max power Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Nice classic. The last CB!Love those things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReconRat Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 (edited) I like them. Last CB, Max? Don't think so. Mine is a CB900F2 and CB900F7.(Or maybe a CB900F5, I don't think they made them after 2005. Just kept selling them.)The NightHawks couldn't mount a rack in the back. Just nothing to attach to.But that's not what they were made for. It's an all around fun bike.Edit: ok ok, I guess it's the last model of the air cooled CBs.And yeah, I miss them also. Really rock solid bikes. Edited February 11, 2012 by ReconRat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motociclista Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 1993, 24K miles...I know, sounds old with a few miles under it's belt.Aw, that's nothing. Let me tell you about Nighthawks. Back in the 1990s I lived in the San Juan, Puerto Rico area, where there were a lot of motorcycle messengers. Almost all of them bought Nighthawk 750s. I recently visited and there are still a few messengers the Internet hasn't yet killed off and some of those Nighthawks are still on the road, too. We're talking about 6-digit mileage, all of it in a hot climate in urban traffic and treated mercilessly by suicidal messengers. 24k Ohio miles is nothing by comparison.
