Hello,
Just bought this 1982 CB900F Super Sport on a impulse, (My normal ride is a 920 Virago) a few days ago
and I will not be riding it until the Spring.
Mod's that I have found so far on the bike.
Full Hindle (Very quite at idle but sounds great when you step on it)
Thanks for a great site, hope it gets larger with more information for use up here in the north, it
gets to be a long winter.

It shows 26,000 Kilometers (a little over 15,000 Miles) on the clock but I can't verify if that's correct
because it has had so much custom work.
The serial number on the frame differs from the engine, so I am not sure if that means its been changed
or not. ( I can't imagine Honda not matching the numbers)
It doesn't matter as the thing runs well, very quite at idle with little or no chain or engine noise and
is almost scary fast.
Idles a little rough until it gets warm but that could be the cams and jetting, I will know better when I
get a chance to play with it over the winter.
I must admit the past owners must have taken care of if because its almost impossible to find even a screw
or nut with the typical rounded off head that you would normal find on a 18 year old bike if some home
mechanic gets the wrong wrench on it. If you know what I mean.
Custom paint white/red Freddie Spencer colors/pattern (lots of acrylic lacquer and a perfect job, this guy
must have been a artist)
Powdered Red frame & powdered Red Rims, again a very good job.
Steel Brake Lines
Andrews Cams (I think but can't verify)
Dynojet Kit/ with K&N Filter
Upgraded Ignition
Progressive springs in the front end.
Shocks (Not sure what they are, but I think maybe S&W)
European Bar & Peg set (Factory)
Matching 1/4 fairing with new smoke windscreen (took it off right away, don't like it on this bike, I will
take off the lower part later)
Regina Chain
Newer sprockets geared slightly taller than stock (lower revs at hwy speed I guess)
Rev Limiter (not sure if its working YET)
Custom carrying rack with a back rest inset (took it off already)
New seat cover, very nice
Really neat rear signal lights, really small and bright, I have to find a pair for the front.
