1982 Honda Cb 900C, For sale is my 1982 Honda CB900 Custom. I bought the bike approx. 6 years ago when it had 19,000 miles on it. It now has 67,000 and change. About two years ago the engine was removed and rebuilt from the base gaskets up; it received new gaskets, new Viton valve stem seals, new cam chain tensioners and guides, and a 3-angle valve job, as well as a complete de-carboning and cylinder honing with new ring sets on the pistons. It also received new clutch disks and "heavy duty" springs. The original rear air shocks were replaces with YSS units with adjustable preload and rebound damping, and the forks have 10W Honda fork oil. The fork seals were replaced about 4 years ago and are still sealing well. The carburetors have been synchronized and had an idle-drop adjustment performed (for better cold starting and off-idle performance). I also installed Dyna DC1-1 ignition coils and ND U-Groove plugs, which improved start-up and acceleration performance. The rotor and the regulator/rectifier were replace with new units when I purchased the motorcycle and have proven to be reliable.I also replaced the front brake reservoir and installed braided steel brake lines in the front with sintered metal brake pads (strong initial bite compared to organics, handle heat more effectively, and don't fade as quickly as organic pads). The bike currently sports a Vetter Windjammer IV fairing and Vetter trunk. All four rubber "bunkees" (trunk mounts) were replaced in 2011. The windshield was replaced several years ago and kept in good condition with no yellowing. The bike also has a Travelcade King and Queen seat, which is an improvement over the stock unit (which I also have available - pick which seat you want and I'll sell the other one separately). I have keys for the locking pocket on the fairing and for the lock on the trunk. I've enjoyed this bike a great deal. I've taken a number of long-distance trips on it with no issues. I've even completed a Saddlesore 1000 trip on it (over 1000 miles in less than 24 hours). I've had a great deal of sentimental attachment to it, but I've purchased a GoldWing for my wife and myself, and it's time to send this bike to its next owner so that it can be ridden and appreciated. (Disclaimer: Though I have every confidence in the motorcycle, it's being sold as-is with no warranties. I'm happy to start it up and demonstrate for you, but I don't allow rides unless you have cash in hand. Like the old saying goes, "You break it, you bought it." No trades, no checks, no Nigerian wire transfers, and I don't need help selling my motorcycle. Cash is king.) $2,500.00
