Picked this up on the kinda cheap and was glad to find this group, as I'm hoping to do a full resto-mod to it in time. My first question that I was hoping might get answered here, is about the starter relay. Mine is out (apparently, as when using the button power drops out but starter doesn't crank), and the prior owner was simply arcing the battery to one side of the relay (as can be seen in the photo). I found this: https://www.partzilla.com/product/honda/35850-MB0-007 but was wondering if it will for sure work due to the difference in appearance, or if I should check something else first, as that is rather expensive. Also, if I just google "83 nighthawk starter relay" I get an item that is much cheaper, but looks even more different. https://www.dbelectrical.com/products/starter-solenoid-relay-for-honda-motorcycle-nighthawk-shadow-many.html?&mrkgcl=1145&mrkgadid=3348053656&product_id=SMU6096&adpos=1o2&creative=196254016515&device=c&matchtype=&network=g&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI5fj4nPuc5gIVStbACh1cnwTdEAQYAiABEgJlP_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds Will something like that work just as well? This is just the first in a long list of electrical issues, but I'd like to start out on the right foot. Thanks in advance, I have enjoyed reading through these posts! And thanks for the manuals!! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
