Looks like you're just up Route 58 from me, greasy.

I've used 87 octane, corn alcohol, "Regular" in my 84k mi. '91 since I got it (@19k mi). In CT, it sits garaged for 4-5 months each year). Winter prep is only: 1. Tires up off unheated garage floor. 2. Shut the pet, fire it up, and run the carb bowls dry. 3. Treat the gas in the...

I'd absolutely keep at least one of the 750 'Hawks. Mine's a '91 ("Tokyo Rose" - all the '91s were red). I'm two years older than you and I TOUR. Got her used in 2012 with just 19k miles on the clock. Just hit 84k, still running like a Rolex and, like one of yours, the only non-consumables...

Had to ask, Bob. Had to ask. ;o))

Your blue (K5?) is beautiful, b905. From the pic and your mileage, I think we do about the same type of riding: mostly long distance highway. My Nighthawk evolved quickly into a long-distance tourer. Bought it used (Craigslist) and got a great one. Bought in 2011. Verified sitting in a shed...

Any DOHC parts?

I feel better now, barney. Thanks. Just hit 84k mi. on my '91 CB750 Nighthawk ("Tokyo Rose"). Still runnin' like Lady Rolex. Was beginning to wonder if timing and/or alternator chains were nearing the end of expected lifespans. Nice to hear that you're still breakin' in a CB750 @ 96k.

Same here, kramdua. Back in '73 I had a used '61 VW beetle w/the kick-lever "reserve" on the floor and no gas gage. Did the same thing. Driving west across a 104 degree Arizona desert towards Winslow, at my last gas stop I got to talking w/someone and forgot to reset the kick-lever back up to...

Isn't that a line from Mel Brooks' "Frankenstein"? (See you somewhere on this road, BIKERDAD :o)

I noticed an "Ask a Question" section on the Dennis Kirk website you posted. Why not email them or call them? I've dealt w/them myself. Bet they can tell you whatever you need to know about those two and three-wire lights.

I'm in CT. About 5 years ago, after many hours of online searching, I had success in locating a correct, red, right side-cover for my '91 NHawk to replace one that was swiped. Perhaps they also have some center stands: STEVE'S CYCLE, Tifton, GA (I save all my receipts). Phone: (229) 386-8666...

1991 CB750 Nighthawk here, set up for touring with windshield-fairing and backrest-trunk on the pillion. 84k miles so far. Will still get the clock up over 115. Burns just a speck of oil if really pushed. Head's never been off, just the valve cover to replace a gasket that disintegrated from...
