I just joined this group. I bought an 83 Nighthawk 550 about 5 years ago. I am only 25, so yes the bike is older than me, but I love riding it. When I bought the bike, she had been sitting in a garage for many years with some carburetor issues. So my dad and I took at it and cleaned her up real good. I was able to get some good riding time on her, but then in 2008 the city I live in was flooded really bad and my nighthawk was stuck in it since I was out of town. So for the last few years I have been spending most of my time during the summer to fix her back up. Well finally last year I was able to get her running, she had some issues and towards the end of summer the starter went out. Well just a few weeks ago, I had the starter rebuilt and now I am hoping to have her running again for this summer. I have always been fascinated with riding. My dad started me out when I was two by just riding around the parking lot and then by the time I was three we were out on the road. I know this may be asking a bit much, but does anybody know where to get some decent accessories for this beauty. I know that she is almost 30 years old, (which in mechanical years is a long time) but I would really love to maybe get a sissy bar, or maybe a windshield. So if anyone can help out that would be great.
