Hi...
Attached are some photos of my new/old 1982 CB900F, which has
been restored with a complete top-end rebuild on the engine. Feel
free to use my name and email address.
Current Mileage:
This is actually the combined parts and engine from two 1982 CB900F
bikes.
It was a project started by a friend of mine, Ken Timmins. I bought
the project from him with the agreement that he would help me finish
re-building the top-end of the engine that had 17,000 km on it.
We finished the rebuild early this summer (2002), I had the new
decals made and had the bike painted, then we put the whole thing
back together.
I like the look, copied it from the European Bol D'Or style. I had
the decals made as vinyl cuts in a sign-shop. They still have the
pattern. If anyone is interested in this decal set, let me know and
I'll set you up with the shop (skeggsd@sympatico.ca).
The paint shop
installed the decals over the flat black paint and then applied a few
layers of clear-coat on top of that -- nice effect.
The pipes are 4-2 Macs, nice throaty sound. I never liked the 4-1
header that was on one of the bikes, and the original pipes on the
other bike were finished.
The quarter-fairing is an out-of-date Shoei. Can't get a replacement
windscreen for it. I'll probably replace the fairing later.
This was a great project and I have a great bike as a result of it.
Regards
Doug Skeggs.
