Battery might get too low if your regulator is failed.

You need to check the volts with a mutli-meter when the bike is running below 
2k rpms and above.
Above it should be putting out 14 v (about that much)

If it isn't your regulator is gone and the battery is dying as you ride. 
Nothing is recharging it.

Now I detected a problem in my Motorcycle which is  as follow: When the engine 
is hot, after some millage done, the engine can not start again,it´s lock like 
as battery bad, the starter motor can not move the engine, and I already 
checked the Starter motor, condition of Battery ( was good ) and almost wires 
and all things related to ignition system, but any problem was found, only when 
the engine is cold the starter motor function very well.
Please, some body of this group has some experience about how to solve this 
problem.
I will appreciated so much your guidance and opinion in this matter
Best regards

If you find one in good shape,  I don't think the year of manufacture matters. 
Besides brakes, clutch plates, chain, sprockets and battery, I didn't have to 
change any parts in over 10 years.

Thanks to all of you.

Just due to aging of the parts, would it be suggested to look for a 2003?

Here’s a new one. I have an 86 700S with about 4,000 miles on it. I’ve kept it 
running over winter but the last time I tried to start it, no response. So, 
tonight I took the carbs off and gas poured out from the airbox. I pulled the 
plug underneath and more than a gallon came out. I’ve never seen this happen 
before on a Honda. I saw it once on a Suzuki GS550E that had been sitting for 
years.
So gas has been flowing from the gas tank, through the pet cock (turned off), 
into the carbs and then back through the carbs into the airbox.
Anyone else ever encountered this?

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] 700S - gas everywhere

2019-06-02 Thread Greg Holuban
Float valve? Happened on a klx 400 that has been sitting for about 8years. Be 
sure to suck fuel out from the top of pistons from sparkplug hole to prevent 
hydro lock. Not tasty.

Subject: [Nighthawk Lovers] 700S - gas everywhere

Here’s a new one. I have an 86 700S with about 4,000 miles on it. I’ve kept it 
running over winter but the last time I tried to start it, no response. So, 
tonight I took the carbs off and gas poured out from the airbox. I pulled the 
plug underneath and more than a gallon came out. I’ve never seen this happen 
before on a Honda. I saw it once on a Suzuki GS550E that had been sitting for 
years.
So gas has been flowing from the gas tank, through the pet cock (turned off), 
into the carbs and then back through the carbs into the airbox.
Anyone else ever encountered this?

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Starter Solenoid plug melting

2019-03-05 Thread Greg Holuban
When I replaced mine with a cheap aftermarket one,  I  installed it backwards. 
Not good. Wires started to smoke. May sound funny, but yeah make sure to plug 
it in right. At first look, all the tabs seemed the same thickness. But 2 of 
them should be thicker.

Looks like loose connections are the culprit here.   good lesson to learn.   
now to get the bike on the road again.

Many uses part stores don't ship overseas.   though I found a few that did.   I 
got a 20$ solenoid from ebay...  gonna cross fingers and use grease on every 
connection

Thanks all.

Read a horror story of a thread that centered around Chinese aftermarket fuse 
holder that looked an awful lot like yours.  Are the ones that melted oem or 
aftermarket?  Your pic looks like one side of fuse got hot and melted. I would 
read that as a loose connection on that fuse tang creating higher resistance 
which creates the heat. If the connection was loose creating all this heat, it 
wouldn't  put more amps thru the fuse to blow it, less amps would go thru 
because of the loss of amps creating the heat on the melting side. Hope this 
makes sense

Hi gang! Just wanted to get your opinion:  I took out the melted solenoid plug. 
  turns out its not the connections in the plug that melted, but the 30amp fuse 
attached to the solenoid

I've attached pics.   the fuse links the battery to the bikes electrical.   
does that mean the fuse had a bad connection?? Why didn't the fuse blow?

I'm open to opinions to ensure this doesn't happen again

Be very careful with the exhaust studs! Also, you'll need new exhaust seals. 
The old ones are hard to see, but gotta come out.

I completely rebuilt the twin carbs on a 1993 Kawasaki EN500 Vulcan. These are 
great little parallel twins with plenty of power. I replaced the Orings in the

bike I have spent the last two days trying to stop them from leaking still. I 
have adjusted the float levels. The leak is not coming from the float valve but 
I can see through the air box that it is coming out the back of the carb 
directly into the air box. Even with the float levels way below where they 
should be the carbs still leak. I can only surmise I did something wrong in 
putting the carbs back together. How can gas be overflowing into the air box

Hello Nighthawk Members,

I have an 1983 CB550SC Nighthawk that has charging issues.  Anyone know what 
options I have for a stator fix/replacement.  I think that is the source of the 
issue and wonder if anyone has been able to find a replacement or even better, 
repair what they have.  I went through some troubleshooting a while ago and 
know that there was no grounding of the case and I think it was just not 
producing what it needed to charge the battery. Don't remember the specific 
test.

I guess it comes down to wanting to get it running again.  Is there any sense 
to buying a 30+ year old part that someone says works fine on ebay?  Is there a 
supplier for new or a rebuilder that does a good job for a reasonable price?

Thanks!!

Careful! That pic is of a BT 45. You can see the numbers on the side wall. They 
are good tires. I have them on my bike. The BT 23s should be much better 
though. I'm not sure if they come in 750 sizes though

Does anyone have directions for installing a center stand on a 90's 750?  I 
finally bought one from Pinwall one eBay.  It arrived yesterday and I haven't 
looked at the bottom of the bike.  If not instructions can someone take a

I can't wait to get it on my bike.  My space at work is tight and the center

Thanks in advance.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] need help lowering/taking off front tire

2013-06-20 Thread Greg Holuban
Be careful not to over tighten the bolts and crush the forks. Any hawkers in 
your area who could help?

Allen Thomas althomas...@gmail.com wrote:

You have to lower both ends equally to not affect handling. Lowering the forks 
in the triple trees will speed up turn in and make the bike want to fall into a 
turn. Conversely lowering the rear makes the bike harder to steer and want to 
stand up in turns. If you have your front and rear height adjusted properly it 
will turn in easily, and you could let go of the bars in a turn and the bike 
would remain stable. I suggest getting riding boots with thick soles before 
modifying the bike, if that will do the trick.

Subject: Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] need help lowering/taking off front tire

Welcome Melody!
Congrats on buying your first bike!
I would echo the sentiments already mentioned - the front forks
(the big tubes that hold the front tire to the rest of the bike) can be
lowered however, it is in general not done in favor of lowering the rear
instead. Suzuki made an entire line of bikes in the 80s with an L after the
model number for Low and basically all they did was to re-work the rear
suspension and change the seat for a lower one.
If you're entirely too short for the bike - as in we're talking
inches too short - it might be better to consider a different bike than to
try to re-work the suspension on this one. If we're talking about a small
adjustment - that should be doable with the rear suspension and perhaps a
modified seat.
Other thoughts?

 didn't help me at all with telling me how to lower it. I have figured out
 that I need to lower the front forks or something and from all my

 Can anyone tell me how to take off my front tire? I don't even know what

 Hi Peeps,

 I've noticed a ticking noise as I accelerate from a stop. It starts out
 very slowly and speeds up as the bike speeds up until engine noise drowns
 it out. I thought the chain might have picked something up at first, so I
 watched the chain as the rear wheel rotated slowly, but saw nothing there.
 A friend suggested that it might be a binding speedo cable. It doesn't seem
 to be coming from there, but that should give a good idea as to the
 frequency of the ticking. It's definitely too slow to be the crank or rods,
 and especially the valve train. Is there anything in the transmission that
 could be turning that slowly? My next move is to pull the drive sprocket
 cover to see if anything is in there.

[Nighthawk Lovers] carbs 101

RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Rear tire won't inflate

2013-04-13 Thread Greg Holuban
Hey man! I also have the macs for my 91 750. I should have gone with the Vance 
and Hines one. Much better quality. Anyway the macs are cool. If you remove the 
baffle it will be really loud. It will also give you a noticeable power 
increase. It's fun but gets annoying after a while. I would recommend when you 
get the headers in to give it a light sanding and spray it with engine paint. 
Mine started to pit and rust after about two years. And I'm in Florida. If you 
want it to last and look good, I'd paint it. I also had to put a spacer for my 
centerstand. No biggie. Make sure to get exhaust seals, so you won't have an 
air leak. I assume you know that you need a jet kit for it to work well.

 I went through this a few months back and had the shop replace the cable, it 
was cheap, under $40 but then it still did not work, not sure why they don't 
bother t-shooting anything at the shop, but their comment was that the mechanic 
reported a clicking noise in the head end meaning instrument cluster and 
recommended replacing it. Anyway after shopping a bit for instrument clusters I 
realized that that was a little too expensive to just jump into blindly and 
decided to take a closer look. My suggestion is to identify if the cable is 
spinning first. Remove the speedo cable from the head unit and with your bike 
on center stand and you may need a little help here, but you need to get the 
front wheel off the ground. I used a floor jack under the motor with the bike 
on the center stand. Once its off the ground spin the wheel and watch the 
cable, it should spin very slowly. Anyway, If its not spinning, you need to 
remove the speedo cable from the front hub, (note - you may also opt to use the 
drill on the other end of the cable method, this will bypass your need to 
elevate the wheel, at least for now...). Once you get the cable assembly and 
speedometer drive off the hub inspect it closely, mine was bound up with thick 
gooey gunk with the relative viscosity of 20 year old window caulk with broken 
pieces of plastic mixed in. Once I went back to the drawings I identified my 
problem was a broken speedometer gear which is actually on the parts list for 
the front wheel identified for the 84 CB650SC as 




44806-MB0-003

GEAR, SPEEDOMETER



 It's a pricey gear at approximately $28, but much cheaper then replacing your 
head unit / instrument cluster.
It's also my recommendation that you inspect and service when necessary and 
repack the unit with fresh grease whenever you replace your tires or brakes 
since you have it apart anyway. In my opinion if mine was lubed properly it 
would likely have never gone bad. At least not with less than 25,000 miles. In 
any case good luck.

Gene, I don't mean any disrespect but you are flat out wrong and spreading 
misinformation... If you hook a positive up to the ground/- it will cause a 
short and burn a fuse. Hooking them both together doesn't make them brighter it 
just feeds over the flasher relay and causes the light to stay on and then turn 
signal not to function. The voltage doesn't change the brightness doesn't

The 
third wire is the wire for the always on running lights. I've been hunting 
for 
LED 3-wire lights for quite some time, nobody seems interested in making them. 
As long as you have that wire end tied off somewhere that it can't come in 
contact with a ground, you'll be fine. Tape up the end, tie it back securely, 
and run with two-wire lights.  
 
-Kurt
 
PS: There IS a way to make two-wire lights function as three-wire lights, 
but it involves splicing power diodes into your lines, which takes a bit of 
doing and some careful component selection and in most cases isn't really worth 
it, in my opinion.

buy a service manual.  Clymer's a good one.



Second, fewer than 40 mpg in constant stop/go traffic is fairly

normal, but almost half that is not.



Sounds like the engine is running rich.  Are you mindful of turning

choke off after warmup?  If so, problem may be deeper.  Try pulling

the spark plugs and inspecting them.  If they are sooty black or wet

with gas that would confirm a rich mixture and might indicate a need

for air/fuel mixture adjustment.



Also check the choke cable for proper adjustment.  Follow the cable

visually from the handlebars to the connection at the left side of the

motor.  A two-finger fork style fitting at the end of the cable

operates brass pins built into the tops of the carbs.



With the engine off, move your choke lever from full on to full off

and observe the operation of those pins (you'll probly be able to see

only one of them.  The rest are connected by a rod across all four

carbs).  If the choke is operating correctly, the brass pins should

almost disappear into the carb bodies when you turn the choke off.

With the choke full on, you should see about a quarter-inch of brass.

Use your new service manual for adjustment procedures if needed.



I'd suggest new plugs in addition to a new air filter and oil change

as already mentioned.  Sniff the oil to make sure there's no gas smell

coming from it.  And empty blowby gases/water from the clear plastic

tube hanging down from the frame, under your right foot peg (it has a

plastic plug in the end)



Balancing the carbs wouldn't hurt either (service manual, again, for a

description of the procedure).



The motor was designed to run on regular gas, so switching to higher

octane would have no affect unless it's pinging or dieseling.



Before you put a wrench to it, though, try a weekend 100-150 mile,

open road (non-stop/go) run to see if you're mileage figures improve.

Should be in the low-mid 40s -- more, if you ride sedately, less if

you don't.

RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Wheelies

2012-10-09 Thread Greg Holuban

The trick with the nighthawks is that the wheels have to be rolling. You can't 
do it from a stand still. Just roll about 4-5 mph and pull the clutch and give 
it gas, then let the clutch go. It takes a while to get used to it. To do it 
easier, just sit on the rear seat. You controll the height of the front wheel 
with the rear brake so it doesn't go too high. Or flip backwards. The bike is 
not strong enough to do power wheelies, but you can do little ones in 1st gear. 
You could put a bigger sprocket on the back, but I wouldn't recomend it unless 
all you do are wheelies. Practice and get a feel for the controls and yes they 
are fun.

My best friend growing up told a gruesome tale where his friend he was riding

pulled one starting from a stop sign and I guess realized he was getting close 
to my friend and hit the brakes real hard. Well the result was the bike coming 
down real hard and somehow flipped the bike with the bike landing on top of him 
and causing massive internal and spinal injuries. My friend tried to help him 
but he died right there before the ambulance crew even showed up. My advise to 
you, if your friend wants to pop wheelies, follow him, don't lead. Oh and you 
might wanna get one of those Go Pro cameras, hopefully to get the great shots 
of him being successful, not of him hurting himself.

Ride Safe.

RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Saddlebags recommendation?

From what I've heard CB stands for Cross Beam. Meaning the position of the

750.

CB applies to all the Nighthawks, including the 90s 250 and 750 (the latter 
being a CB750, for instance). If I'm not mistaken the 80s 750 was a CB750SC 
(alongside the CB650SC in 83-85 and the CB650/C in '82). 

CB stretches back into the 70s (60s?) as well, so... really just a family 
identifier. Standard riding position motorcycle, UJM.

Nighthawk 750 - I'll look at them tonight and get you the manufacturer and

long tours.



However - I have a NH rack and Givi trunk on my bike for daily riding.  If
you want to keep them on full time I wouldn't use soft bags.  The
right way, in my opinion, to put bags on your bike for long term
use is to mount hard bags.  The Bestem rack is an amazing product but very
pricey $400 
(http://www.bestemusa.com/Honda-Nighthawk-750-Luggage-Mounting-Rack-Kit-for-Bestem-T-Box-Mount-both-Top-and-side-boxes_p_763.html).
 
Others have made they're own mounts for hard bags.  If you have access to
the right tools and, if you're like me, maybe a friend with mechanical talent
I'd make my own.  If not I think $400 for the Bestem rack is worth the
investment.  Then you can mount 2 removable hard bags that will keep
everything dry and safe no matter where you go.  You can also add a trunk
for maximum storage space.  Somewhere in the forum is a picture of a bike
with the Bestem set-up.  It has more storage than my ST1100.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for finding parts for a 1982 Suzuki 
GS1100? Looking for a fuse box, a starter solenoid and rectifier. Thanks in

RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Chain replacement

2012-07-07 Thread Greg Holuban

Change the sprockets and the chain together. Most chains come with a master 
link. You will need to loosen the rear wheel but not remove it. You will also 
need a dremmel tool and a chain tool. Not hard to do, just tricky. Maybe 
somebody around you can help you out. A cheap chain is OK but won't last as 
long. Look for chain and sprocket kits on ebay.

Can I confirm one thing? Allen and Kurt, you both mention sprockets. I was 
under the impression that I was replacing the chain before it ruined my 
sprockets. If I were going to replace the sprockets anyway, the skinflint in me 
would be tempted to just keep riding, since I would never know that something 
was amiss if I didn't get down on my knees and squint at the little arrow 
behind the axle. I've seen diagrams of OK and replace wear patterns on 
sprockets since I was a kid. If the teeth on my sprockets look symmetrical, am 
I good with just a chain?

I don't have a dremmel; I'm wondering if there's a cutting tool I could just 
put on my electric drill.

About the clip-on master link, I put 30K miles on my first CB550K back in the 
80's but never had any chain issues. Maybe I could chance a master link on the 
new chain I buy.

all who offered suggestions on my trip up the Blue Ridge Parkway. I couldn't 
get as far up north as I wanted to at the request of the person sitting behind 
me, but we loved the trip, rain and all. We made it to Blowing Rock, NC before 
looping over into TN and down through US129 into GA. 

I just checked the chain after all the miles I put on the bike (1996 750 
Nighthawk), and the indicator is back in the replace chain range. So I 
checked the illegally downloaded shop manual I've got and found that I need to 
buy a 525 110-link chain. A quick check of Ebay, Bikebandit, etc. shows me I 
can spend between $25.95 and $185 for a replacement. I put a $30 chain on my 
1978 CB550K (my Sunday afternoon bike) and it seems just fine, but I don't ride 
that bike states away with the Mrs. on the back.

Question #1 How much should I spend on a chain to get one of stock quality? The 
bike has 24K miles on it now; I bought it with 13K. If that is the original 
chain and I can get another 24K miles out of the next one, that is fine with 
me. I might not put another 24K on it. Advice?

Q#2 How do I get the old chain off when the new one comes in? Strangely, I 
don't find instructions for this in the shop manual at all, and I didn't find 
it on Paul's how-to's or a Google search. I do not find a master link on the 
old chain at all, and I've cranked it around slowly, checking both sides. Do I 
take off the real tire, undo the back left shock, and slip it off the rear 
pivot arm? Bolt cutters? Hacksaw? And if the new one has no master link, what 
then?

I hate to be such a newb, but thanks in advance for any and all advice.

Let’s start at the beginning:  by “sticky ignition” do you mean that 
with the key inserted, it is difficult to turn initially without jiggling or 
wiggling the key but that once started to turn it is easy to turn the rest of 
the way? Or is it sticky or difficult to turn throughout the full 
rotation?  If the former, it is probably the key/or 
switch.If sticky throughout the full rotation it is not the 
key, but the switch being dirty, sticky, etc., and needing 
cleaning/lubrication/etc..

Properly meaning front and rear brakes simultaneously with heavy

application only, however, would leave telltale marks and probably

cause almost complete lack of control as the rear tire lost traction.



Hopefully, you're not trying to reconstruct an accident, based on the

question you've asked, because it sounds like the defensive  action

(braking) was too little, too late.

Hey All You Nighthawk Lovers,
I'm new to the group.  I looked through prior posts, so I hope I am not asking 
something that has been answered elsewhere. 

So, my 1991 cb 750 has been great.  I change the oil regularly.  Last oil 
change was about 2 months ago.  

A few weeks ago, I rode the bike from Seattle to Walla Walla--about 275 miles 
each way.  It was the longest, hardest riding I have done on this bike, and it 
was great. 

But, just now, I stopped for gas.  After I filled up the tank, the bike 
wouldn't start.  It was as if I had the kill switch on, but I didn't.  So, I 
checked the oil and it was LOW.  

I added an entire quart before it got full Yikes!!!

I know I do not have a leak.  Am I burning oil?   What to do?  

Thanks.

[Nighthawk Lovers] Steering bearings

2011-09-10 Thread Greg Holuban




So, I just got done replacing the fork seals and dust covers. I also installed 
new springs from Racetech. And while I was at it, I painted the lower forks so 
the marks from rocks and disc lock mishaps won't show as bad. I needed to 
replace the steering bearings too, so this was the perfect time! I was suprised 
to find how dry the bearings were. I have 34000miles on the bike which I 
don't think is too much for the grease to disappear. I'm glad I did it though 
because the new bearings were much better. If your steering still feels fine, 
but are getting on in miles, it might be a good idea to open the top and 
squeeze some grease in the steering stem.

RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Steering bearings

2011-09-10 Thread Greg Holuban

Go to motorcyclecruiser.com / tech site and it will help with pictures. I found 
it by doing a general search. The work takes about 3-4hours, because you have 
to take the front wheel and forks apart. I took the tank off to get to the 
steering head nut easier with an adjustable wrench, since I didn't have the 
right size socket. Everything comes apart pretty easily. I had to bend a long 
flathead screwdriver to remove the bottom bearing. The bearing cover that rests 
on the bottom of the stem didn't want to budge, so I took the stem to a local 
bike shop and they took it off in 5minutes. Charged me $20. Still better than 
breaking something without the proper tools. The tricky part is putting the 
bottom bearing on the stem. You have to put the stem in the freezer for 5-6 
hours, and heat the new bearing to expand it a little. Yes, it is that tight! I 
used a pvc pipe to drive the bearing onto the stem. I think it was a 1inch 
diameter. I also used a pvc pipe to drive the fork seals. That was easy. So, 
now that I've done it, I could do it again easier. It was a good learing 
experience. At another shop they quoted me $350 just to replace the fork seals. 
I probably saved $600 by doing everything myself! Basically it's just nuts and 
bolts and a lot of grease.

replace the bearings?Javier.

So, I just got done replacing the fork seals and dust covers. I also installed 
new springs from Racetech. And while I was at it, I painted the lower forks so 
the marks from rocks and disc lock mishaps won't show as bad. I needed to 
replace the steering bearings too, so this was the perfect time! I was suprised 
to find how dry the bearings were. I have 34000miles on the bike which I 
don't think is too much for the grease to disappear. I'm glad I did it though 
because the new bearings were much better. If your steering still feels fine, 
but are getting on in miles, it might be a good idea to open the top and 
squeeze some grease in the steering stem.

Hats off to you man. I just came back from a trip to Pigeon Forge on my 91 750.

 Graham,
 
 I leave Raleigh Tuesday, have to be in MI by Thurs aft, could make it to you 
 late Tues or anytime Wed, would have to leave either by Wed afternoon or dawn 
 Thurs to make it to MI before 4pm.  Would really like to solve this, so if 
 that timeline works for you I'm in, email me direct with where to meet you, 
 which day is better, and a cell phone number I can send an ETA to.  Anywhere 
 nearby I can pitch a tent or find a cheap motel? 
 
 Never thought me  my 80k 20 year old $1k bike would suddenly feel like the 
 belle of the ball that everyone wanted to dance with!  Thanks so much to you 
 all for your offers to help!
 Peace,

Eng and trans should be fine. Those bikes are bulletproof. I'd offer less

 Hello to all Nighthawk Lovers.



 I am going to buy my first motorcycle and i found that Honda Nighthawk

 is the closest to what i want through what i can afford.

 I am a student, so money is the biggest factor for me and i'm looking

 through used motorcycles.

 Today i found a good deal on the craigslist:

 http://tucson.craigslist.org/mcy/2530725806.html   - Nighthawk 750,

 1995 year, 47k mileage for 1000$. But when i went to look at it, my

 inspiration reduced. It looks like owner doesn't care properly about

 it. I didn't ride it, just looked, checked. It starts good, works

 smoothly, good response on axcel., didn't saw smoke from exhaust on

 high rpm. But looks dirty, broken turn lights, all plastic parts and

 paint shows that it had kept long time on Arizona sun, tires used

 much, front shock has small leak.



 On the one hand, I like this model of motorcycle, it is a good price

 (since i can't afford something more than 2000$ ), good year for the

 price, starts well, sounds ok. But on the other hand, there is big

 mileage and i'm afraid of hidden problems with engine and transmission

 because it probably didn't maintained carefully. It looks not so

 attractive, but i do not care much about cosmetic problems, i can fix

 it easily.

 I'm an engineer and i'm ok with mechanic work, i'm ready rebuilt an

 engine, if it necessary, but i'm afraid that to buy this Nighthawk and

 rebuilt it could be more expensive than to buy motorcycle in better

 condition.



 What can You advice me? If i'll look at it one more time, where should

 i pay attention, how can i check that engine is not going to die?



 Thank You!

 The stop in the middle is a clear indication of the need to replace
 steering bearings.
 
 But I would not be quick to blame left-side tire wear on the steering
 bearing  defect.  It sounds like you may have front/rear tire
 misalignment in addition to the bearing problem.
 
 I'd fix the bearing first, then address the misalignment as a separate
 issue.
 
 You'll need a shop manual to guide you with both.

 The Honda service manual calls for several special tools which are
 generally not available anywhere that I know of, but with some
 improvising the job can be done without them.
 
 Here's a source that will give you an idea of what the job entails.
 It's not specific to your bike -- more like a generic how-to -- but
 the guy (Dan of Dan's Motorcycle Course) is very good at explaining
 the ins and outs, whys and wherefores, of most motorcycle repairs:

 Paying a dealer to do that would be at the tune of $60-90 for first

RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Brakes please help

2011-05-28 Thread Greg Holuban

I used a contact solution bottle with a fish air pump plastic hose and attached 
it to the bleeder valve. You can turn the bottle upside down and squeeze hard. 
Of course you would have brake fluid in the bottle! This way you push the air 
in the system up, which is the natural way for air bubbles to go.

Remove the bleeder valve and stick a wire down through it and clean out the 
junk that is blocking it.

RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Options for carrying extra gas?

Might not be a bad idea to change the front or rear sprocket for better fuel 
economy.

H... 

You're going to have to stop to put the extra gas in it anyway, and 160 miles 
is just a bit shy of three hours at a steady 60mph; might as well just buy it 
fresh and avoid the issue?

Only reason I've ever carried extra fuel on a trip with me is when I head north 
to Chicago, where gas is stupidly expensive. I fill two five gallon cans and 
put them in my car's trunk, then use the cheap-cheap SC gas in Chicago rather 
than filling up at city prices. Saves me a good $10-15 in gas over the trip.

Howdy,

So I'm planning a cross-country trip on my '92 750.  Stock tank is about 4 
gallons, which is about 160 miles max or so, which isn't very far for a 4,000 
mile trip.

I'm curious if anyone here has any experience carrying extra gas along with 
them.
What did you use?

Would you do it again?

How much could you carry?

How safe was the extra gas in the hot summer sunlight on a full-day ride?

Thanks!

I just got quotes to get my front shocks rebuilt from $240 to $300.

I would like to do this.  But I never did this before.

That will pay for one of my college classes, that I am paying for myself.

I live in Port Charlotte, FL.  College will be done in two weeks.

I will not go back till June.

I am going to college, this is my only means of transportation.

I average 880 miles per week between college and work.

Thank you for your time.

Hello,


I own a 95 750 with 20K miles.  Awesome bike, amazing purchase, getting into 
doing the oil and monitoring everything, etc.  Anyways, I let the bike rip 
finally and when I got to 8K RPMs at 115mph on the gauge, the throttle was 
moving but the bike backed-off and then shut down.  Remembering something from 
the manual that said to get into neutral asap if that happens, I did so and 
coasted to a stop.  I shut down, restarted...swear that the bike rumbled for a 
few seconds, and has been the fine since then (at least to 65000 rpms!).  
Anyways, I just want to know what may have happened and if I can sort it out or 
make things better, etc.


I am just geting into my nighthawk and am super stoked about my bike.  Any 
advice for standard mantainence?!  Any essentials?

RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: sugestions please

2011-02-08 Thread Greg Holuban

Hey, I used what I had! It was a long flat piece of stainless metal that I bent 
into a U shape by driving my van over it. To bend the other end, I used the 
back wheel of my 18 wheeler. The axle bolt mainly holds everything together. I 
cut and bent the bottom just to make it more secure. What mainly holds it from 
going up or down is the shock bracket, whick sticks out just enough. Yeah it's 
big and heavy, but it works. I've used it for about 5 months now. A hacksaw and 
a drill can go a long way. Come to think of it I still have enough metal to 
make another one.

The horseshoe is thicker than the swing arm. In the picture look just to the

2011-01-13 Thread Greg Holuban

Man, where are you in FL?  3 my seat was torn when I bought it. I went to 
JoAnns or any fabric store, and got a yard of vinyl. They also have sponges or 
felt or foam to use under it for cuishon or support, Then just use a staple 
gun.  5JPcycles, JCwhitneys or Cycle gear can all get you mirrors for about $14 
for two.  6some Wal Marts have saddle bags for $65.  7I have throttle lock on 
mine. Love it, especially on long rides.  8You should get 45mpg + with stock 
setup. A taller front sprocket should help some. Webster or Palatka FL have 
monthly bike swap days. Want cheap stuff? Go there.

RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Need help or advice on my 1993 750 nighthawk.

2010-12-18 Thread Greg Holuban

Best luck would be with a local small bike shop for tires and the handlebar. 
Installed front tire should be around $100 and for the rear $135. Bridgestone 
BT 45. The handlebar should be around $32. JC Whitney has them, but the local 
shop can search. They should have all the books on suppliers. If you go with 
straighter bars, you'll need risers. Dirt bike bars should fit too. Or you can 
go for a cruiser look.  The carbs? They should have come clean with the right 
jets. If not then that could be your problem. You have stock pipes I guess.
 Let us know where you are, and maybe someone closer can help you.

RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Does this look right?

Forks have been painted black. Straight handlebars too. I had to put risers on 
mine to clear the tank. The tail has been trimmed to look more sporty. I'd 
check the tail lamp to see if it's mounted right. I don't see the rails under 
the passanger seat where you can strap and bungee stuff. A lot of mods, mostly 
visual though.

 This has always been a problem for me too! It may feel unsafe to keep
 up and if they get too far ahead you will lose them. The only answer
 is RADIO! FRS works pretty good out to a mile, CB maybe to a couple
 miles, and ham radio to maybe 10 miles or more. Cellphones may work
 but in the bush only on high spots or where there's coverage. The
 problem with all of them is a comfortable helmet/bluetooth connection
 that is always there. Having a leader not using a radio or cell is a
 style I won't do. Take you time, enjoy the ride, and if they leave you
 behind you don't want to ride with them anyway.

 Parts are on the way for overhauling the front brake master cylinder

 done any of this before.
 
 Anybody have advice, tips, tricks, special tools or insights on any of
 these? I've been studying up on all three, but looking to avoid any
 of the gotchas that usually occur the first time out with any
 disassembly/reassembly project, especially controls as critical as
 brakes and throttle.
 
 I'll also be replacing the Cop Magnet Yellow skins with shiny, like-
 new black ones from my parts bike, so I'm looking at a cosmetic
 facelift as well.
 
 Should look/ride pretty good when I'm finished.

Hi All, Enjoy this site and thanks to all for their knowledge and expertise. I 
own a 91 Nighthawk 750 in candy apple red that I bought from a car dealer about 
7 yeras ago. it is a fine machine with about 11,000 miles. I do notice though 
consistently that it takes about 20 minutes to warm up before all the cylinders 
are firing and I can pull away in 70-90 degree weather. If I stop along the way 
it takes another 20 minutes or so before it's ready to roll otherwise it 
stumbles, loses power and won't accelerate. Is this inherent with the breed or 
should I be checking something? All other maintanence is carefully maintained. 
Thanks agaain. Lou

Yep.

Just to do it, I went over 100 on my 550Four, back in '69.  I had no 
windscreen, but did have a helmet and face shield (lotsa bugs in Puerto Rico).  
It went right up without strain and had room to spare at around 110, but I was 
running out of the deserted area of the road and so backed off the throttle.  A 
friend who was riding my 125 took a while to catch up...
The wind really pulls against your arms  hands at that speed...

I think Tim and I topped out around 75 coming back from Greenville.
Might have been lower, we didn't want to push that old kinked chain.

 I haven't done the math myself, but here's what the internet says.

 Maximum speed in gears @ redline: (1) 49, (2) 71, (3) 89, (4) 106, (5)
 127, (6) 147

 I've gone about that fast in a car (142) but don't have the guts to try it
 on a bike. That was several years ago too, I might not have the guts to do
 that in a car anymore either. I'll never find out as long as I'm driving the
 tacoma ;) Fastest my bike has gone was 90mph and that was only briefly. For
 the most part I keep it between 70-80 which is normal cruising speed of
 Houston traffic. That works fine for me.

RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] I-81 isn't very smooth in some section's to even do the speed limit

2010-09-17 Thread Greg Holuban

I've done 130+ but the speedo isn't exact up there. I have a 41 tooth sprocket 
on the back. Now she'll top out at 127. And no the bike doesn't  like to stay 
at redline.
