Just bought my first CB650SC

Truth be told I just bought my first bike ever, a 1982 CB650SC Nighthawk. I've got some work ahead of me before she's roadworthy but I'm excited.

You will be pretty pleased with it after getting her road worthy!

A stocker cb650 has electronic ignition(stock) unlike the points previous SOHC's use.

The 650 is the last in the line of SOHC 4's.... I just wish they had improved the charging system a bit more though. Seems to be the achilles heel of the 650's.
