1984 Honda CB650SC Nighthawk review from United States of America
"Classic Greatness"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Nothing has gone wrong with this bike. I have cruised it around Colorado and even up to Sturgis, SD with my girlfriend. This machine as been pampered and I can tell. She runs with the 750 with no problems and is smooth and nimble. I also can get almost 50 mpg!
General comments?
A tech wonder is 83, this machine still is nice. She is powerful and smooth and needs little. The 700 Hondas of this time actually used a modified version of this engine. I hope to keep this classic bike until she becomes a collectors item. Hopefully I can stay safe.
