Good morning all! Name is Tyler. Im in the fingerlakes area of NY and just found this forum. I have had this bike for going on 4 years now. its a 99 CB750 with 9100 miles to date.  I like it so far. want to get something different soon If I can move this one but if not Ill be working on some mods this summer. I did the exhaust baffle mod and found the washer mod yesterday. going to get them today. also lowered rear by making new brackets Just wanted to say hello and look forward to seeing what you guys are doing to your bikes

 to the addiction, sexy looking bike. Why are you wanting to move on to some other bike that's not nearly as great as our NHs?

Not hating on them. I rode one for 8 years. It beat the hell out of me so, I got rid of it for a Bandit. Best decision I ever made. Don't get me wrong, I kind of miss my Sporty but, it was so uncomfortable to ride that it was only good for riding short distances.

thats what I keep hearing about them. but the ones I have rode dont seem to bad. this one is comfortable dont get me wrong. two wheels is two wheels to me. bikes are nothing of a status symbol to me. sounds like some of you guys are the same.

 There are a couple of pics and threads about drag bars. You need to know that you will never love a bike as much as the nighthawk you already have. I love mine so much, I bought a second one. Keep the shiny side up.

Welcome to the site! Great looking bike, I dont see a motorcycle as a status symbol either, but figure, why buy 1 hd...when for that price i can buy 4-10 NH's. :)

I couldn't agree more Snoop.....thus the reason I bought 2 NH recently for the price of one basic, stripped HD. But I can understand what he is say thou...
