Honestly didn't think I would ever like a Nighthawk Bobber/Chopper. This is very nice though...now if I could just find a bike for that cheap and learn to go through it and upgrade it like you did!

Hey Bully, new Nighthawk owner here and your bike has inspired me to ask a couple questions if you don't mind. First, how did you make your struts for the rear and what length? Also, how easy of a fit was the Sportster tank to mount up? Love the bike and thanks for showing it off.

I'm starting '82 750 bobber project and am wondering how you got that sporty gas tank on the square backbone (or if your model year has that style backbone)

Hey bully bob the chop looks great. I have a 82sc chop also and had some risers made out of aluminum and of course eventually broke. I found your post and totally ripped off your risers. I already had the alum clamps so no $. Thanks. You still here?

Looks awesome, Bully Bob. I have the same plan for my '85 CB650SC. When you added the straight pipes did you need to re-jet the carb? or any other tuning for that matter?

Hey Bob- NICE job at that bobber. That rear fender is a work of art. Simply gorgeous. I like the idea of painting the wheels copper. Doesn't look like she would like to lean all that much in the corners, though! |
