83 Honda CBX650E Nighthawk

needs a little bit work before Rego, but still damn nice bike to ride and quick.

Been sitting in a shed for 10 years, fresh fuel and away she starts

sweet! if you are gonna repaint it, go for the nighthawk black from honda or the metallic black of the lancer. they will look mad i think.

Pfft... did you just swear... the word "Stock" is not allowed round these parts

You can work on any thing in the lounge room. My uncle built a sailing boat in his lounge room because his wife wanted to see him. She could not spend time with him with him building it in his garage. Once it was built they knocked down the front of the house to get the boat out.

They dont make women like that any more.

lol...
sounds like the guy from top gear who built a car in his kitchen...
They had to knock down the wall to get the car out... the wife on the other hand "fitted quite nicely through the door and was gone quite early in the piece"

Back on Topic

Nice bike, looking forward to see what you do with it!

Well the bike finally has Rego

Today is such a nice a day i decided to go for a quick ride (tad under 100ks)
small knock in the front end but thats the suspension and i have the seals to fix it

couple of pics i took

At the moment she is staying stock (well it already has a aftermarket exhaust from previous owner) the only things i have done is Luggage Net, LED numberplate Bolts and got a Magnetic tank bag coming
