So, after getting the Nighthawk to my shop I checked for spark (good) and compression (good) and I started right into the carbs. No wonder the bike wouldn't run. The jets were completely clogged. I cleaned both carbs and hooked it up to a temporary fuel tank. A little jump on the solenoid and she turned right over! With the bike running I got a chance to check the charging system, which is a common problem on these old Hondas. Luckily for me it was a solid 12.7v with the bike off and 13.8 running! Nice! I have high hopes now.
