[Nighthawk Lovers] Engine rattle noise - what could it be?
Hi, There is this slight engine rattling noise on my '83 Nighthawk 650SC. I recorded it after a 30 min ride (so the engine was at temperature): https://photos.app.goo.gl/WpH2bu4Jz4jTRU7R9 Any idea what that could be? I bought this machine last year and got it running in December. Put 300 miles on it. This is my first-ever motorcycle, loving it! And yes, I still need to clean and tune the carburetors. But I'm getting ~50 MPG on it: http://www.fuelly.com/motorcycle/honda/cb650sc_nighthawk/1983/shadowbrush/886051 , so I wasn't very motivated to tear into it. Thanks!

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: 85 CB 700 S
Yes I downloaded the one from Paul's page and the wiring diagram. Order rear turn signal stays and 4 new lenses along with bolts and gaskets. Also grommets for the side covers. If this bike didn't run so well, handle and feel so solid I wouldn't be spending so much time and money on it.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: 85 CB 700 S
Yes thanks, I got them all on ebay. So far I've had good luck. Replaced fuel tank, instrument cluster, front turn signals, front cowl, handle bar controls, brake and clutch levers, front forks, shift pedal rubber, carb gaskets and connector o-rings, petcock kit, left side cover and electrical bracket bar.

Thanks arthur. Read your post about removing paint... you can use chemical paint strippers to remove paint but the ones I have tried tended to attack the plastic parts. Might be better off sanding with with progressively finer grits, prime and paint as stated in earlier post. The guy I got my silverwing off of painted parts of the bike with a cranberry rattle can paint. Took lots of sanding. He even painted over cracked clear coat and pinstripes! What a mess that was , anyway, good luck. Do you have the missing body work for your bike?
