A mini documentary about how I got my first standard bike, a 1983 Honda Nighthawk 450, or the CB450SC. With a seating position of a standard bike, I should avoid any aggravation to my neck.
When I first saw a Nighthawk in person, it was like love at first sight. It featured a 445 cc two cylinder engine with two carburetors, 6-speed transmission and 395 lbs. dry weight. This one came with a rack, a back rest, and engine guards. There were even highway foot pegs on them. The exhaust had been modified to a high flow exhaust, and the carburetor was rejetted.
Watch this mini documentary about how I searched, found, bought my CB450SC cruiser. How the bike failed the safety inspection, and when I ran out of fuel on the way home.
