After Honda's SOHC 750 had taken the motorcycling world by storm, they probably made it for longer than they should. After all, - how do you follow an icon? The answer was with a radical re-style, and a double overhead camshaft motor. Introduced in 1979, the new machine, known as the CB750KZ, featured twin front discs, Comstar wheels, and an extra 10 bhp over the SOHC model. The same year, they also introduced a larger sibling, the CB900FZ, with similar styling. Also with a DOHC motor, but importantly with 4 valves per cylinder, and Comstar wheels, it was justifiably labelled Super Sports. For 1980, with minor styling tweaks, such as the reverse-black Comstars, it was re-labelled the CB900F-A. EKY 59V was purchased new by Michael Steel, from D.C. Cook Group Ltd. on 8th March 1980. He part-exchanged what appears to have been a one year-old CB900F with 850 miles on the clock (see original bill of sale on file). In 1984 he passed it on to his cousin who ran it thereafter for a number of years, including several trips to the Isle of Man TT. However, due to the owners age, the bike was retired from use at least ten years ago, and kept in dry storage, having covered a total of only 15,441 miles in total. It has, therefore, had only two owners from new, but due to standing, will now require re-commissioning, and attention to the front hydraulic brakes, which no longer function. Documentation comprises a current V5C, an old V5C, the aforementioned original Bill of Sale, together with the Owners manual, and service booklet.
