Hello,

So last weekend I took my Hawk on it (and my) first long ride from Chicago to Milwaukee and back. Everything was going fine (although I think I need smaller main jets) until I was almost home then, I noticed a significant amount of white smoke coming from the left exhaust.

Then I noticed ...

More than likely you will find that these older bikes are exempt from some state and local regulations. For Instance, most models were not equipped with turn signals(winkers) and therefore are not required to have them or install them. Most states do require you to use the proper hand signals at ...

So these bikes were never capable of being driven at night for any significant length of time?

At any rate, I suspect it would have to be a real dick of a cop to give me a ticket for it if I explain the situation; still an annoyance.

Yes, I did check and IL does not make any exceptions, at least as far as I can tell from the DMV website.

Just a related note, blue is significantly harder for the human eye to see, so you'll probably get better performance with the red.

Hello,

I read elsewhere that the CB77 wasn't designed for running the lights on all the time, as the law in my state requires, so I wanted to get confirmation. Has anyone ever heard of this? Is it true?

Thanks!

Guess I should post some pics of my bike. :)








And my other bike.....
