I own a 1985 honda nighthawk 700 I am having an issue that when I try to take off from a stop the bike seems to stall or not want to accelerate The only way to get out of it is to pull the clutch back in and and rev the bike and drop the clutch I then shoot off like a rocket I really enjoy riding the bike and want to fix it so please help me

make certain it has compression and has spark and is getting plenty of fuel and the air filter is clean. clean carbs air filter and fuel filter and new plugs.

this may help,it doesnt sound like the clutch is out of adjustment,it sounds like the clutch plates have become stuck together,(this happens quite a bit if the bike has been parked for a while..ie over winter)..to fix it get the bike moving,down a drive way or something..then just bang it into gear,then shift into the highest gear you can by shifting without the clutch,once you have a bit of pace on simply hold the clutch lever in and work the throttle on and off all the while holding the clutch lever in,the clutch should free itself fairly quickly and should be back to normall,a lot of older bikes are good at doing this..hope this helps

Your kickstand sensor might be bad, its a push switch next to the kickstand that's pretty easy to find. 10 Minute fix.
