For me anyway.

How about you?

Saw this in a video- a CB with RC30ish bodywork. As a past owner of 900Fs and an RC30, me likely! A lot!

Well, the CB1000 wasn't so special in the 90's; when the market & mind share was mostly about cutting edge sportbikes. Really still isn't so special, other than being an ok bike with typical Honda ...

Throw a 1/2 or 3/4 fairing on it, and bring it to the US

Ok, I admit to mostly being hidebound when it comes to CB-Fs. Still...

Looks like everyone in the video was going for graduate level asshole diploma.

Clearly the work quality looks excellent.

If you already have a 900F, I would not think the 750 would offered anything extra. I would just keep what you have.

100% agree with this. The 750 is a real nice bike-- but the 900 is a spectacular ...

Some folks feel they need to go as fast as they can because it is the last run of the day and they have a whole day's experience- so take everything they learned and put it together & cut fast lap ...

Have fun, ride your own ride, it's not a race, beware the red mist, and don't do the last session of the day.

I've mostly bought Scorpion helmets the past 12 years or so- after a lifetime of Arai and Shoei, with an occasional KBC or AGV. I find the fit/finish/quality to be pretty close to the rest, the anti-f ...

How did the bike work with a 16/17 wheel setup? That's quite a change from the stock setup and I'd think the geometry would be pretty screwed up.

Looks great though lol

I've ridden both (well, an '82 1200 Jota and an R1100C) & came to the same conclusion as expressed in the article

The undeniable truth is that the Honda not only does absolutely everythin ...

Actually, it seems that there doesn't seem to be a need to wait, since this Japanese company builds a CB1100 kit that, imo, looks better than what Honda's showing. At least I think so- the site is a l ...

I don't know if I have any paperwork from the 900F I bought in 1981, but I have a sense that I do have something somewhere.

What I know I have is this remembrance of buying it- part of a longer 9 ...

Nico Bakker was one of several noted frame makers who started in the 70's for mostly Japanese engines.

These were great bikes when they came out. You were the King of the Road if you had one.

I certainly was.

Until the VFs came out lol

Not sure how I feel abiut this combination of two of my favorite bikes. Otoh, it doesn't really matter what I think- the owner obviously likes it

I sure would like to see the build thread and more ...

Nice pics, thanks for sharing.

Anyone doing it? Debating taking the VF or CB. Always a good time.

Really nice ride to/from the event, and lots of neat old iron there. All in ideal weather.

Some pics

If anyone's interested, I'll be taking the 900F to the

Sounds pretty good too Smile

I don't know. Been told it might be a MAC.

Seems to work very well though- and sounds excellent.
