In the past 18 months two of the three "older" motorcycle mechanics in Honolulu have passed away and the one left is retiring next month. He's the only person who's worked on my Nighthawk sense I've had it and will actually call me when he somehow knows my bike needs something. He has been the proud owner of 4 Nighthawks over the past 30 years of owning his shop. I can't see anyone else working on my bike. Plus I'm at 103,000+ plus miles, 90,000 of them I put on the bike so maybe it's time to upgrade to something more modern.
Through friends I can get a 2010 NT700v for at most $3,000. Only 5,000 miles on the bike and in amazing shape. The owner only road weekends, garage kept and never seen the rain. I remember when these came out and thought they were interesting and think they would be a great daily rider, especially for Honolulu. Basically a small "sport touring" bike with lots of storage for all my stuff. Has anyone road one of these? Any thought or feedback from other Nighthawk riders would be great. I love my 750 and will hate to see the bike go but it's time. A friends wife is looking for a starter bike - I'm going to give her my Nighthawk. I just don't have a mechanic to take care of it the way it has been for the last 10 years and really don't want to see someone else take care of the bike.
