1997 Honda CB750 Nighthawk review from United States of America
"One of the best, underrated motorcycles out there"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
I have had absolutely no problems with this motorcycle since purchasing it from a private owner in March, 2005.
I have changed both sprockets, rear brakes and the chain as normal maintenance procedure.
I have changed the engine oil (religiously) according to the manufacturers suggested interval.
General comments?
This is a very comfortable and reliable motorcycle, and an absolute joy to own.
If I would have anything negative to say about it, it would be the lack of accessories for it. This would include a center stand as standard equipment and not as a optional add-on. However, the positive aspects of the motorcycle far outweigh any negatives.
