Okay as the title states i have narrowed my next addition down to one of these bikes. On one hand i like the look of the 750c way better. But the newer nighthawk 750 is a more modern bike that would assumably be a much better bike with less maintenance.

By the specs, aside from the brakes it would seem the nighthawk would be a much more fun option due to being 100 lb lighter plus more power. But I don’t really care much for specs and have already read all of that. I’m hoping someone has ridden both and can tell me the difference they felt between the two while riding.

If I got a nighthawk I’d have to do something about the tail. I can’t stand how the front looks like a cruiser and the rear has the super long sportbike tail.

I can't speak to those particular bikes but, I think they'd both be fun. As far as one being a "better bike," I enjoy the old stuff for it's inherent lack of refinement.

Also, yeah, this forum is kinda dead in some sections/topics.

I beleive the CB750 line was the original series that predated the "NightHawk" In 1982, was the first time the Night Hawk was used for the SC models. i think in 84 was when the branding kept going as the nighthawk for the model line.
