I have been staring at the pic and have yet to find your cupholder. Aren't they standard on all Goldwings?

Hey guys,
These are what bikes are supposed to look like- you can see its components. Must have been the age when I first noticed bikes- early 80's- so bikes I saw as a kid were products of the 70's and early 80's.
Looked at your thread- you seem the bunch to know my period bike- 1978 CB400 T1. I'm trying to dress it up to look older still. I posted a description on the "everything else" garage forum under 50 50 honda. Could you take a look?

Heres mine;
1984 CB450SC Nighthawk. My first bike, bought back in November of '07. So far, I've had the seat recovered and the fork seals done. I like it.

In what was supposed to be the final incarnation of air-cooled in line-4 750cc bikes (700 in the U.S.A.), the S.C. was a modern hot-rod when it was introduced. Following the same engine arcitechture as the '83 550 and 650 Nighthawks this thing was a lot of fun in the day. While there was already the 750 Interceptor for the sportbike guys this was more of a sport-standard. The later Nighthawk 750 introduced in '91 changed the whole concept to more of an economy bike, loosing the shaft drive and picking up low cost components. It would be interesting to see if a modern version of the S.C. (with 17" wheels and a beefed up frame) would sell. Don't cheap out on the components, keep it air cooled with shaft drive....
It's amazing how nice and comtemporary the '84 Nighthawk still looks today. This incarnation of the Nighthawk was a great bike. Too bad Honda only made it for a couple of years.

Love the old classics, I had these three CB750s but regretably sold them when I got an offer I could't refuse.
