    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I have to agree about the 'Hawks - I've owned 3 different Honda CB bikes, and my favorite one hands down has to be the '83 650 Night Hawk (DOHC model).

Shaft drive, air forks, 3-way adjustable rear shocks, hydraulic clutch, hydraulic lifters, 6 speed tranny...


Pulled hard and handled great. Shoulda never sold it....
 
My first bike was an '82 450 Nighthawk. My best friend got his first bike at the same time, an '83 Kaw 440 LTD. His bike was quicker out of the hole, but mine would catch and pass him within about a block. Boy, those were fun bikes.

My next bike was a tough choice - the '85 CB700 Nighthawk S or the '85 GS700E. I chose the GS, my buddy then got a 1984 GPZ 750, and the fun started all over again, only a LOT faster!

That 650 Nighthawk was a hell of a bike too. A little sportier than the 550 or 750 Nighthawks, but still cruiser-like enough to turn heads.
