If I had more sentimental value with mine I could understand that, but I had to let this one breathe!🤣 Redline all day. Not sure how that engine is doing now.. probably still going since it's a Honda 🤷
Me my dad and my uncle all have cb750 nighthawk all bought at separate times but ironically our years line up 2000, 2001,2002 lol all in great shape.....
@@MarkHittGuitar possibility. I ran pods with stage 3 on my 650 nighthawk and it ran like shit. I have better luck with stock filters with a few slashes in it.
@@thatmendoguy But did you have a V & H and stage 3 on the 650? And you know the deal with air fuel screws games I am sure. I run stage 3 with pods and a V & H with baffle in.
I am concerned about your steering alignment. Looks like the handlebars are not straight, nor is the steering yoke, which tells me forks are twisted. A good idea to fix it before it all comes apart on you. Could be the forks are twisted int he triple clamps from crash or whatever. You may be able to loosen off the triple clamps and get things back in alignment. If not, I wouldn’t ride it that way. I’ve been riding bikes since I was 15 and I’m 72 now. I own three bikes, one of which is a 95 NH. I had an02 NH as well. My bikes were tuned for speed and horsepower and both are pretty quick. Good luck, but please take a look at it.
Thank you for the concern! You are right! This bike was a crash recovery, the forks were twisted a bit, I tried my best at aligning them for the short time that I owned the nighthawk. Sadly I got rid of it. Weirdly enough, that bike was still very stable at those speeds. Although I wouldn't let off the bars at any speed, that's where the wobbles came in. This bike is somewhere in NorCal still I believe. Thanks again!
Bars and forks lol. But yeah the speedo was off pretty bad, and it gave up after 80 if I remember right, just stuck there. That's why I got my GoPro GPS haha I had no clue before.
the "diving" you mentioned,has nothing at all to do with twisted forks! These model bikes come from the factory with pretty "soft" springs in the front forks so that it doesn't take much for the front end to dive when braking or cornering heavy! I had the same problem with mine,but I fixed it by simply draining out the fork-oil in the front,and adding a heavier weight fork-oil! That keeps it from diving during braking. However,when riding in colder temps. the front suspension WILL be much stiffer due to the heavier oil in it! : >)
You can untwist motorcycle forks the same as a bicycle. Put the front tire up next to a telephone pole on the side opposite the twist. Pull the handlebars toward the pole FIRMLY to reverse the twist. Easy peasey.
I want to say first was taken as far as it would go, so maybe 30, then 55 or so for second maybe? Whatever redline cuts power at because I took it as far as I could everytime. Couldn't tell you accurately unfortunately. No more videos and I no longer have the bike.
😂🤟. Man my 1st bigger moto after my Grom was a 1991 nighthawk 750. What a fun all around moto, but man is it slow 75hp and a 500lb+ curbweight not a good combo lol
Haha yeah, I can't wait to get another one. Slow bikes now compared to other things I've ridden. Sure is fast for 90s tech though. Enjoyed the twisties on mine.
For me to be able to ride little wheelies out I had to be staggered... knee on the seat. It wont stay up if you're sitting normal unfortunately, unless you know brake control... which i do not lol.
It was on the bike when I got it, they are one of the best sounding and most rare exhaust system for this bike. Unfortunately you aren't able to buy them anywhere online or local dealers anymore. Best place to look for them is on the Honda Nighthawk group on Facebook, there's alot of helpful people on there.
It may be just an illusion but your handlebars and top yoke look out of true and pointing slightly to the right. Looks like you're enjoying yourself though.
If it looks great and there's nothing wrong with it thats a great deal. Check all the gaskets on the head, those are known to go bad around 10k. These carbs are suuuper touchy, so have fun tuning or messing with jets, especially if you're stock.. grab a stage 3 jet kit and open that airbox up, she'll sing.
Sí, estoy de acuerdo, el paisaje es espectacular, pero mis barras están dobladas. Mis horquillas nunca se arreglaron después del choque, ¡pero eso no afecta mis bolas mientras conduzco! jajaja
Dude do you still have this bike? And do you live in PA? I'm not 100% but if you dont still own this bike..I believe I do now.. 40k+mi on mine simular to yours..4 to 1 vance & Hines pipes on it too..its all fixed up now tho..again not 100% but just figured I'd ask..love my 750 tho..also have an identical 250 I'm selling as well
I do not have this bike anymore, I sold it for 1k with a bad head gasket. and I love in northern Cali so I don't think that's the one. plus, I painted it flat black before I sold it. that's cool though! similar miles I believe
Man, you banged engine non stop😂😂😂 I pray and cry for girls that you ride on bed😂 Amen
☠🤣🤣
Cracking wheelies, quick acceleration, thats how u BUS A VINTAGE MACHINE
That's how you properly ride em when you do your own maintenance 😉
I like the video man. I have a 1991 nighthawk cb750 that was my first bike I'm working on repairing. Keep up the riding!
Thanks and good luck to you!
Very reliable and collectible bikes. I have 2 nighthawks now. A 83 and 91
i have a 93 with the vance and hines shits so loud i feel bad revving it past 5k lol
love the video

Man that was fun 👍 I bought a black 1992 750 a year ago and love it...
10,000 miles and paid 2400.
Was it this one 😉 I painted it black before selling.. a year ago.. lol
@@thatmendoguy I got mine in Fenton Missouri.
Looks like you’ve got the gearing spot on!
That’s for sure 😄
What sprocket setup are you running? My 5th gear would be shifted into already by like 70mph
@@corydunaway only 1 up in the front from stock. I go through so many bikes I don’t remember the numbers, but 1 up from stock is what I ran.
Love those 750 Honda engines....legendary!
Top 3 favorite on my list! They take endless abuse if maintained right.
You add one tooth in the front on your bikes usually right? Would it still hit 100mph and get that extra torque?
Or is it kinda gutless at 100?
Is a 93 nighthawk 750 with 59k miles a good trade for a four wheeler I have (2000 Kawasaki bayou 300 2wd)
How long do those bikes last?
Absolutely! I'd do it immediately!! Basic maintenance and it will treat you right forever.. goodluck!
1. Dude, rev limiter? 2. What tires are on there? 3. Jet sizes? 4. Air filter? Spill the beans man. P.S. You ride a NH like a nut but I can dig it.
Rev limiter sounds nice, so I bang it non stop lol. I dont care about engines...
Dunlop tires 18 front 19 rear
Stage 3 jet kit on stock air filter.

Thanks! I wouldn't mind an older one, ill get one someday ha.. ride on man 🤙
Bro when you blocked the camera I thought I was gonna crash 😅👍🏼
Got to be a little sketchy with it sometimes 💪 ✌️
That looked sketchy as hell with the bent bars or twisted fork or whatever is going on. That speedometer just sticks?
Bars and forks lol. But yeah the speedo was off pretty bad, and it gave up after 80 if I remember right, just stuck there. That's why I got my GoPro GPS haha I had no clue before.
I test rode a 91 and it felt like it really wanted to dive in corners while doing low speeds. This a sign of bent forks and is it fixable?
Could be, but these bikes are heavy and weird with the weight. Diving seemed normal to me

My super magna 750 cc same hp is hitting 131 mph no issue it’s heavier as well why is yours struggling
@Jamesz_hunt 🤷♂️ probably just tuning
Cb750 nighthawk? Wheelies? Badass rider? That's a subscribe.
💪💪 thanks!
Dang. I cant get my nighthawk to get that wild. Most I can get it to do is pop a high wheelie. Can't get it to ride one. I'm not that great on it
For me to be able to ride little wheelies out I had to be staggered... knee on the seat. It wont stay up if you're sitting normal unfortunately, unless you know brake control... which i do not lol.
where did you buy your exhaust?? that sounds good

They are a blast 💪
Handlebars are crooked ?

Vance and hines 4-1 pipes. Very very rare.
