Having blazed the multi-cylinder trail in 1968 with the trend-setting CB750, Honda found itself upstaged by Kawasaki's Z1, which was not only larger at 903cc but boasted two overhead camshafts to the Honda's one. Honda's riposte, the CB900F, did not arrive until 1979, by which time Kawasaki had moved on to the Z1000. However, the CB900's twin-cam cylinder head boasted sixteen valves compared to the Kawasaki's eight, enabling it to produce 95bhp against the Big K's 93 and deliver an almost identical straight-line performance combined with superior handling.
A UK model, this 1981 Honda CB900F2 was purchased by the current vendor in April 2010 and was last run circa 12 years ago. Described by the vendor as 'almost all original, the machine will require re-commissioning before returning to the road. Accompanying documentation consists of an old-style V5C Registration Certificate and a quantity of expired MoTs issued between 1986 and 2009. The current odometer reading is 8,689 miles, which appears to be supported by MoTs. A workshop manual is included in the sale.
