Default dad gave me his 93 nighthawk 750

its a 4 carb setup (which i need to rebuild *** i hate doing that did my friends already)
im only 17 is that old enough or an m1?

he started making it into a chopper already but its only half way done so i dont want to post pics (lot of haters on this site) (talked nothing but **** on my civic that is not done yet)

anyway i dont know if i should continue the chopper look or rebuild it with a full factory nighthawk faring (i dont need this running for a few weeks i got a car)

i also read that in the 70's they used this 4 cyl. engine in alot of choppers

any suggestions

also what modifications can you do to a motorcycle?
so far:
chrome exhaust (hollowed)
chrome header
strip all the useless stuff off (saddle bags.stero.......blinker plates...faring.........windsheild.....turn sigs.....ornage reflecors....b*tch seat and removed the b*tch bar...removed the front fender ) i like the look so far
honda 5-spoke wheels
drilled slotted rotors

stuff im considering:
reinstall a full faring with wind shield
nitrous oxide
intake
handles
lower springs in back
raked front end
fatter tire (rear)
stock tire front
im thinkin carbon fiber pipes but they kinda sound hi-perf
paint the caliper red


basically im asking what should i turn it into a hiperformance bike or a chopper again my dad has no need for this bke since hes a lawer and cant ride it to court and we cant sell it (we tried we wanted 1500 for it so we get all of our money back but every1 said it was too high so were keeping it and i need to give my mom my civic even though it is modified because we are selling our ford aerostar and i get it before we sell it.........i need something modified or ill be bored and i will be an unhappy loser i spend all my time working on cars so i got the skill and time lol)

this bike is a 79 and a 250 but the faring and windsheild are the same exept mine is all balck





here is a chopper 750 honda 4cyl bad paint

just ride it the way it is. If riding is for you, you'll probably want to get something of your own in the near future anyway.

I would clean it up, and keep it relatively stock. Just keep it clean.

If you can dodge a wrench, you can dod...wait...

If you are old enough to drive, you are old enough for an M1-endorsement. You will need to take the permit test (for motorcycles...if you don't have it for your C class, then you will ALSO need to take that permit test).

Then, you will need to pass a riding-exam at a DMV location or through a motorcycle training class, such as an MSF (motorcycle safety foundation) class. The MSF class will provide you with a "voucher" upon completion (and passing) of the course, at which point you can show up at your DMV, wait in a 5 hour line, and then smile at the lady and show her your license certificate.

Of course, she'll likely tell you you forgot to fill out form A22, which is only done after completion of form QZ311, which you can only get if you turned in an A22 form...stupid DMV...

Good luck with your M1.

Don't forget to wave to the sportbikes.
