1985 Honda CB450SC Nighthawk review from United States of America
"Sweeeeet bike. Love it"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Clutch cable, throttle cables, intake manifold disintegrated, fork seals twice, ignition switch.
General comments?
My 85 CB450SC Nighthawk is a great bike. At this point, I would like something with more balls (750 to 1100ccs), but it's been so economical, fun and easy to maintain, that I don't know if I can part with her.
Most all work I've done on the bike is regular maintenance items. Except for a discharged battery and a snapped throttle cable, the bike never stranded me.
I'd definitely buy another Nighthawk or other Honda product. Quality machines.
