1982 CB750SC Nighthawk

tsnapcracklepop
Well, Hello to all here, Im new I think.  Have had a 1980 cb750F, a broken 900c i still have, and this Nighthawk  got last week, 6700 miles.  The guy said everyone called on it thinking it was a shaft nighthawk (one of which I ride now, 1983 cb650sc) but nobody wanted it since it was chain.  I really do prefer the shaft bikes for cleanliness and the 650 is pretty maintenance free, but I do challenge it as far as cross country type riding, and it has 31k on it now.

So I picked this up with a clean title, no seat and no tank, but the rest looks nice.    The guy I got it from also thought it was the typical nighthawk, and bought a tank, seat, and sidecovers for a cb650sc nighthawk, then found out it was a different bike.  I washed it, and some polishing should really sharpen her up.

No spark, but I intend to ride it this week, so Im here getting some electrical info.

Anyone have the correct tank and seat?

thanks
