The '''Honda HawkGT NT650''' was designed by Toshiaki Kishi and was the second [[Honda]] with Pro-Arm having the model designation RC31 coming immediately after the RC30. The Japanese version model was named the [[Honda Bros]]. The RC model designation is for [[motorcycle|bikes]] up to 750cc, though the Pacific Coast ([[Honda PC800|PC800]]) has an engine of more than 750 cc and a model designation of RC34.

The '''Honda HawkGT NT650''' is a 650[[cc]], [[twin cylinder]], [[four stroke]], [[super sport motorcycle]] manufactured by [[Honda]].
 
The  '''NT650''' was designed by Toshiaki Kishi and was the second [[Honda]] with Pro-Arm having the model designation RC31 coming immediately after the RC30. The Japanese version model was named the [[Honda Bros]]. The RC model designation is for [[motorcycle|bikes]] up to 750cc, though the Pacific Coast ([[Honda PC800|PC800]]) has an engine of more than 750 cc and a model designation of RC34.

The bike's main distinction is in its [[motorcycle frame|frame]] and [[Swingarm|swingarm]]. The dual spar aluminum frame and single sided swingarm (licensed from ELF) were pretty high tech in 1988. The mildly tuned [[motorcycle motor|motor]] is descended from the [[Honda VT500|VT500]] and has been seen, in one guise or another, in several other models.

The bike was ahead of its time in many regards and as a result was not a strong seller despite the bike having grown to cult status. The Hawk GT was one of the first modern Naked bikes, released several years before the [[Ducati]] Monster and eventually the [[Suzuki SV650]]. Some sources claim that [[Triumph]] found much of the inspiration for the t509 Speed Triple/t595 Daytona from the Hawk GT and if one compares the two bikes side by side, the Triumph mimics many of the Hawks lines and shapes.

In 1989, the front suspension damper rods were changed to have only 2 (rather than 4) holes.  The front brake [[caliper]]s were also changed to have screw-on covers over the mounting pins.

A cousin to the Hawk GT, the Revere was available in Europe. The steel frame, [[shaft-drive]], larger [[motorcycle gas tank|gas tank]], longer rear end, and 600cc motor differentiate it from the Hawk GT. The NTV650 replaced the Revere and added the Hawk motor, moving it up to a 650. The NTV650 was replaced for 1997 with the Deauville, basically an NTV650 with full [[motorcycle bodywork|bodywork]] and hard [[saddlebags]] - not too different in general appearance from the PC800.

Although the Bros was never officially imported into Ireland, a large number of [[grey imports]] coupled with its reasonable price, good reliability and economy mean that it is a very popular bike, particularly with couriers.
