NOVEMBER NIGHTHAWK BLACK
Another take on the Nighthawk platform, this Level 2 CB750 went to Randall Reimer north of the border in Canada in the fall of 2014. It’s the sister bike to the Nighthawk we built for Greg Sheffer during the same time period. Actually, this one could be considered an evil twin. Custom CM triple trees with black Yamaha R6-R forks, wheel and brakes provide a major upgrade in the stop and turn departments. A magical Shorai lithium ion battery is hidden in plain sight in between the rails of the swing arm. It breathes through a couple of custom billet intakes straight out of Seth Ingham’s CNC machine. Low-rise bars and a sweet old school nickel-plated Kawasaki KZ650 tank finish off the lines nicely. We hope Randall is staying out of trouble and having a blast in the land of the maple leaf.
