In 1984, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CB750SC Nighthawk, a naked machine also known as the "S" in Canada, the had its debut in 1982 and was manufactured in three versions, such as the CB450SC, CB650SC, and CB750SC.
The big 1984 CB750SC model incorporated all the high-performance with low-maintenance features that made the bike so popular, such as a rubber-mounted engine with an oil cooler and 16 hydraulically-adjustable valves, a hydraulic clutch, an automatic cam chain tensioner, and a fully electronic ignition.
Also, the shaft was low on lash and maintenance-free, while the 16-inch front wheel featured a TRAC anti-dive system and an integrated fork brace that delivered nimble yet stable handling. The rear end was handled by a pair of VHD shock absorbers with four-way rebound adjustability and a box-section swingarm.
In addition, the model came equipped from the factory with standard features, such as a 37 mm air-adjustable telescopic fork on the front, a one-piece dual seat, a wide handlebar, an analog instrument panel, a chrome four-into-four exhaust system, and cast aluminum wheels.
In the performance department, the 1984 Honda CB750SC Nighthawk was powered by a 749 cc four-stroke four-cylinder air-cooled engine fitted with four Keihin carburetors and delivered an output power of 70 hp with a peak at 7,200 rpm and 56 Nm (42 lb-ft) of torque available at 7,500 rpm.
