    Hey mate, this build looks great. I loved the other one too. Your profile says you're in Hobart, is that correct? I'll be keeping my eyes open looking for you, I imagine your ride would stand out Sent from my D6503

    CB250 Nighthawk Tracker. Planning for the future

    So my plan went all pear shaped when some knob in a camry pulled out in front of me (running a stop sign in the process), wrote off my bike and by proxy installed a titanium rod the full length of my left femur on the inside of the bone. 8 months later I'm almost ready to go back to my normal...

    Carb query

    Thanks. I had a look at them, but there seems to be differences in carbs based on country of release, and that place doesn't tell you what carb it's for. I'll email them and find out Cheers Sent from my HTC One XL

    Carb query

    Hi all My bike has a Keihin VE series carb, are these all the same? I wanna rejet it but cannot find specific information for my bike (98 Nighthawk 250) and was just wondering if all VE carbs took the same jets or if there were further model numbers I needed to hunt down Cheers

    CB250 Nighthawk Tracker. Planning for the future

    Hi all I've been having a look at my frame, and thinking of ways of cleaning it up a bit. This is what I have (stock image of a 91, mine is a 98 and a bit rough around the edges) Here's what I'm thinking. Cut and loop as indicated by my fantastic paint skills. I would have a steel rear...

    98 Honda CB250 Nighthawk, Help Please

    98 Honda CB250 Nighthawk, Help Please

    Hi all This cb250 nighthawk is a 1998 model, and the previous owner didn't seem to be very mechanically minded as the first thing I did after riding the bike was loosen up the front forks and realign the wheel/bars because the bike has obviously been dropped. Such an easy fix makes me think...
