Greetings everyone. Thought I'd join the Nighthawk party after picking up a 84 700SC from the original owner last year. 29 k miles, meticulously maintained. I started out riding in 1983, my first bike was a 1980 CB750 Custom, and since them I have owned several bikes, including a 99 NH for 4 years. Back in 1986, (the last year of sales) I coveted the NH 700SC, and they sold out of them never to be made again. 25 years later, I found one and bought it. (It's now historic!) It's the second bike in my stable (I have a BMW Oilhead also). I'm gonna lurk and use the search feature for a while..... thanks for having me.  |

Great looking bike. There are plenty of members with the 700 that can help you with specific advice regarding any repairs or mods you come across.
Welcome!

Nice avatar and signature. p.s. Most of my rides I designate as "therapy rides". Had a 'therapy ride' just last night after I put the kids to bed. Felt much better and more at peace afterward.  |

Nice looking 700SC. And to the forums. What bike is to the far right btw? Actually, this pic was from the previous owner, that's his XR honda dirtbike and 91 Gold Wing in the background. He sent me this pic, and I could not race there fast enough. |
