Might potentially have a shot at this 1983 Nighthawk in the coming week for 350 USD. It's no oil painting and if I'm honest I'm not really a massive fan of the styling. But 350 is 350.....right? (Second picture is from google)

So $350 would be about £250? At that price why not? What would £250 get you here? Over to you Paul Daniels...

A mate of mine brought a Harley back in the hold of a 757.... OK, he was the first officer, but you could at least ask ! Like I said, I would give you the full $350 👍

Well Buster, if you thought the first picture looked fun, this is how it went... Riding the Nighthawk back from work was so boring.

Now at 350 USD I know that some of you may be thinking I am being a total tight arse. But let's look at some costs involved in getting this bike right (and not even pristine) in the real world. It may astound you.

Cheap bike but guessing with all weighed up forthcoming costs not worth it.....or at best break even. Seems like a case of do it only if your heart is in it.

It may astound you. Have to agree. I would love one of these, but unless I found this buried in the shed I would leave it. Back to the parts list, hours of work and value.
