What type of class is it being raced in?

Looks spectacular.

These are the bikes the international riders at the Phillip Island Classic were complaining about, It races against the Suzuki Katana 1100's, XR69 Suzuki {gs1100 engined}endurance bikes, Kawasaki 1000 and 1100's and other muscle bikes of the era 1973 to 1982, It usually beats them too... They are getting up too 165HP out of the old pushrod twin

165 hp out of that motor is amazing - that's comparable to modern stock superbikes like the BMW, Yamaha and Kawi and better than others

That's some pretty impressive leather work.

Very clean limited edition 900F.

Thats a very tidy rolla door.... Curious Don, what makes you think it's a "limited edition" ? Looks like a cb900 fc, In Australia, that model had 18 inch boomerang comstars....

I don't think the Bol D'Or decals were on the majority of 900f's sold here.

if you read the description, the bike is a normal american market cb900f, but the bodywork was sourced from europe in order to get that Europe market only paint scheme

Nope. I missed the fine print since I was looking at it on my iPhone.

Chris,

You are getting pretty damn good with that camera! I didn't know you were there. I was at the Lossa Engineering booth for a good chunk of the show.

SKTP · « **Reply #10139 on:** September 19, 2016, 03:14:38 PM »

Thanks Don...I'm trying. I got cocky and thought I had more...but I blew the focus on too many...that shallow depth-of-field is so easy to mess up...then I went home and #$%*ed up my S90 because I am stupid http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php/topic,160971.0.html

I wish I could have ridden there...but I just stopped by quickly on the way to Santa Barbara

SKTP · « **Reply #10140 on:** January 16, 2017, 10:21:30 AM »

So this popped up on Saturday on craigslist in Long Beach...I was going to try to see it Sunday...but it was already gone

The posting said it was a 1974 barn-find with around 6700 mils on it. They were asking $2000. I really wish I had seen it.

SOHC4 Cafe Racer Fan · « **Reply #10141 on:** January 16, 2017, 10:29:29 AM »

Probably worth it for the parts (snowflake wheels) alone. Someone would want that dustbin fairing, but you might have to ship it.

754 · « **Reply #10142 on:** January 16, 2017, 12:39:30 PM »

Jacwell superwedge fairing. I think..

MCRider · « **Reply #10143 on:** January 16, 2017, 01:27:19 PM »

semantics maybe, but to me dustbin fairings go below the front axle.

me too.....and this is a dustbin (your right Ron, well below the axle on a bike or sidecar. They were banned because they made bikes so unstable in cross winds.

754 · « **Reply #10145 on:** January 16, 2017, 04:30:35 PM »

Instead of getting one or two, why not get the whole set..

I wonder how they got that footage of me riding that bike? I thought we had the track closed that day!
