1984 Honda CB700SC Nighthawk review from United States of America
"Comfortable, dependable and fast"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
The only problems have been very minor.
Replaced the hand grips and patched the seat.
Small oil leak from the left cylinder head.
General comments?
This a great motorcycle considering its age. It is the most comfortable that I've ever ridden due to underfoot pegs, soft seat, and fully adjustable front/rear suspension and handlebars.
The shaft drive and self adjusting valves mean that very little maintenance is needed.
The instrument cluster is great; it has a fuel gauge and an LCD that shows you what gear you're in.
