Here is a pic of my old Nighthawk. It is a 1998 750 Nighthawk with custom Corban seat, stock backrest and rack with Corban pad and I also put Radial tires on it. It handled amazing great with radials!

After I sold the bike it was totaled by a guy who ran a red light. The guy who bought if from me was totaled too, but not killed. He only had it for a month! Poor guy and poor bike...
 
I ride a new Harley now, but am going to purchase a 1985 650 Nighthawk soon for a project bike for the winter.

I thought all 2003 models were red?!

  That's the first thing I thought when I saw the pic (I'm such a Nighthawk geek).   Checked the fiche on BikeBandit and the only color listed for '03 is Italian Red.    The '02 models were sold only in black.  Maybe it was a leftover sold in '03.

  Either way, that's a very sharp bike, NHK.   Look forward to seeing the pics of your CB650!

OOPs, my bad, I have had so many bikes I got confused.

This Nighthawk was a 1998 vintage that I purchased brand new in 98'.

Jeeze, where did all the time go?
