Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] changing brake fluid?
Yes, recommended on pretty much all vehicles every year or every other year. Brake fluid absorbs moisture as part of 'what it does' so that it doesn't condense and sit in your lines. After a while, it will reach its saturation point, and along the way, its boiling point decreases. the actual temps may very, but it starts around something like 400+ degrees, and when it is old, it will be in the low 200s before it boils. 230F isn't that hot for brakes, so it wouldn't take much to boil with some 'spirited' driving.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Backrest for a cb450sc
Ahhh... In a word then - no - it shouldn't require welding - providing of course one can find the proper backrest. They were often a universal design that require shims and spacers to be installed. The Shims and spacers were different on each bike. A KG brand would probably do the trick - that was the brand of luggage rack I had on my 450. -Joey On Fri, Aug 24, 2012 at 4:01 PM, KimAnn kiman...@gmail.com wrote: Sorry, yes backrest for the passenger!

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Backrest for a cb450sc
Hang around here long enough and you'll notice a pattern - every time someone says backrest then people start asking for pictures of the brackets. I had to make my own for my 650. I took my bike apart a few days after I put the backrest on, so I still haven't been able to take good pics of them yet. On Fri, Aug 24, 2012 at 3:19 PM, Joey Kelley sandp...@gmail.com wrote: Ahhh... In a word then - no - it shouldn't require welding - providing of course one can find the proper backrest. They were often a universal design that require shims and spacers to be installed. The Shims and spacers were different on each bike. A KG brand would probably do the trick - that was the brand of luggage rack I had on my 450. -Joey On Fri, Aug 24, 2012 at 4:01 PM, KimAnn kiman...@gmail.com wrote: Sorry, yes backrest for the passenger!

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Backrest for a cb450sc
Go to www.Mutatzu.com. That is where I got mine for my '92 750 nh. Before your order, take as good a detailed photo of the back end of your bike. I will look at maybe you won't have to weld. You may want to contact them to see if they have a direct fit. They may be able to say if welding is needed. Thank you, Ross M.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: changing brake fluid?
So I just changed it... I hope I did it right, it works answer it's a more responsive I think. I only drained it from one caliper though, is it supposed to work like that? Also I looked in the clutch master cylinder (or wtvr the lil box next to the clutch is called) and its all brown and not clear, how do I change that? I took it out to test the brakes and make sure it runs normal, and found the shifting got really weird and all of a sudden it's hard to shift down. I also started hear a sort of rattling noise as it revs around 3k rpm or more :-( what's going on?? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers! group.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: changing brake fluid?
This is on a 650? You should bleed both calipers, each in turn. On the 650, there should be a bleed valve on the left side of the bike, on a cylinder shaped thing just above the engine case. You are correct, there is a clutch master cylinder and it is on the handlebars, you bleed the clutch much the same way you bleed the brakes. -Kurt On Fri, Aug 24, 2012 at 11:41 PM, Gibs gibby.shayev...@gmail.com wrote: So I just changed it...

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: changing brake fluid?
No, you have to bleed both sides. Drain and bleed the clutch the same way you did the brakes. A service manual will come in handy for this bit. At risk of sounding rude, both of these systems are nothing to mess around with, if you don't know how to do it correctly, I would suggest taking it to a shop. -Kyle On Fri, Aug 24, 2012 at 10:41 PM, Gibs gibby.shayev...@gmail.com wrote: So I just changed it...

Well hopefully this week Im gonna be able to bring it in to this guy who teaches you how to work on bikes.
