 Yup, I've done this a few times. The worst [most embarrassing] was two
 years ago. I just took the bike out of storage and got it all fired up. I
 took it to work on Monday. I got out of work and walked up to the bike only
 to realize that not only A) the Key was left in the bike ALL DAY but also
 B) it was left in Accessory ALL DAY. I think I was too excited about having
 it out again and I forgot what I was doing... :(

 So I had to get a jump. I let it warm up for a bit at high enough RPMs so
 that it was charging, then started home. I made it a few blocks, but it
 died when shifting to Neutral at a stop when I wasn't fast enough to hit N
 and then get back on the throttle. :( It wouldn't start from popping the
 clutch since it was still too dead, so I needed a SECOND jump start :(

 ... and another time, with another bike... and car... I almost had a
 double whammy...

 My wife and I have a NHX110 aka Honda Elite 110 scooter. I was sent to
 California for what was supposed to be 6 months on assignment for work. It
 ended up being 1 year. The Scooter was left in the garage back in
 Wisconsin. I had my car in California with me. It had the Optima Yellow Top
 AGM battery. I didn't end up driving my car for about 1-2 months before I
 left, so I needed to jump it and drive it around for a day or two before
 leaving to drive back to Wisconsin. Somewhere about Utah, I noticed a
 strange sulfur smell, but didn't think too much of it. Five days later, I
 rolled into the parking lot at my apartment. After walking around the
 apartment for a few minutes, I went to re-park my car. The battery was
 shot. I somehow managed a 2,000 mile trip only to have the battery die
 right after delivering me home. *Phew*  BUT I was still stranded by myself
 without a car (wife was still out of town); and I didn't have a charger.
 Luckily, I had the Scooter in the garage. I went over to the scooter, but
 was saddened by the fact that the key was in the ignition, and it was set
 to Seat which is how to pop open the storage under the seat. It had sat
 for an entire year off the charger like this... I crossed my fingers,
 twisted the key over to Start and pressed the Crank button. It fired to
 life! Wahoo!!

 So then I was able to go and purchase a charger. I let it charge
 overnight, but the battery was still dead. So I scooted off and got a new
 battery.

 Moral of this story - if you have a Yellow top or other similar battery,
 don't charge them too quickly. Charge them the way the manual states - slow
 and steady. Otherwise they will go bad and waste your $160 investment.

 Oh fun!

 How is that possible, you must not drive it to work several times a week
 then.
 That's why it's called the* Kill my battery* position.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: CB700SC OEM Exhaust?

Hi surfswab, thanks for the reply. I've already used CMS for the forward
controls we needed but they don't have the exhaust system in stock and
seemingly want £1500 for it new which is a little more than I'd hoped to
pay. I guess i'll just have to keep a close eye on ebay for anyone breaking
a hawk in the UK.

 Hi Guys,

 I'm looking for an OEM exhaust for out CB700SC project bike. I've found
 plenty second hand in the  US but shipping and import tax is astronomical!!
 Does anyone have any ideas where I might find such a thing in UK or Europe?
 I've tried the usual Ebay and Classic Honda sites but to no avail. Any info

 Hey gang,
 
 This is the first year that I've tried an alternative form of winterizing my 
 bike and I have to say it really worked well. It was SO incredibly simple.
 
 In years past I've always attempted to drain my carbs of as much fuel as 
 possible by turning off the petcock and running the engine until it stopped 
 on its own. 
 
 But with the purchase of my latest GL1500 (which doesn't HAVE a petcock) I 
 decided to just set a Google Reminder in my phone to start the motor every 
 four weeks and let it run enough to recycle the fuel in the carps. I dumped a 
 whole can of Sea Foam in and filled the gas tank all the way. Then plugged in 
 my battery tender and said, Okay Google, set a reminder for 1 month from 
 today.
 
 And that was it!! How simple.
 
 After an oil change and good wash and scrub today was FINALLY my maiden 
 voyage of the Spring (even though the weather has been VERY nice for some 
 time) and the bike ran AMAZINGLY well. NO coughs, no sputters...just easy and 
 smooth, just like it's supposed to.

changed. Overall is a really pleasant bike to ride.

 All I had to do was take out the lock cylinder and bring it to the local
 Honda Authorized Dealership and they were able to cut a new key. There is a
 code stamped on the cylinder and they look it up in a book. Then they use a
 special took to cut the key. The tool was more like a hand held punch
 press than any other key copier that i've seen.

 The bike is an 83 CB650SC Nighthawk.

 The place was called Power Motorsports at the time. This was about 7

 That is likely an easier option that drive the bike in circles all the way

The VFRs in general, and even the old sports bikes are no where near as
aggressive in the riding position as they are now.

 I'd love to have the crotch rocket version of my VF500C, but I probably
 wouldn't be able to give it enough miles to justify the buy. Beautiful bike

 With pain in my soul I decided to post my interceptor 500 for sale. Here
 is the CL link in case anyone here is interested. Price is slightly
 inflated due to the usual CL-BS, but it mostly reflects what I paid for it
 last year.

 Even if you are not interested, comments on the add/price are welcome.

That is all I do, minus the google calander reminder. I also rotate the
front tire to keep it from getting a flat spot.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Be SAFE out there!

Early spring is always a dangerous time to ride. Your skills are rusty,
cars aren't looking for you, and the roads are in poor condition.

 All,
I don't normally get on the Soapbox - but - I came across a
 motorcycle accident and it has put the Ride Safe and 'Check Twice - Save a

 Have a look at the details:
