This time around, you should try using a skid plate to protect the motor. It's way cheaper than a new motor.

Hey John and Ike, I actually have a 1980 Honda CB 900c and I’m also located in eastern North Carolina. It’s almost complete. (Missing the rusted out tank and couple body pieces that would matter to a project like yours.) It’s not in the best condition as it’s been sitting for years. If you’d be interested just let me know I can send pictures or whatnot. We may not be able to work it out but I definitely felt like it was worth reaching out. Also anyone that wants to like this comment to help them see feel free. Also as someone else mentioned it is shaft drive so you would need to keep that in mind but it is also split high low transmission.

If the bike has a dyno jet on it then definitely try simply plugging the stock computer in to remedy the smoke. It won't smoke as drastically if the temp sensor is bad. Either way its always good to just change the temp sensor in a older fuel injected bike that wasn't correctly winterized.

[@holdenrice9694]

Maybe you could have scooched the engine forwards enough so that you could have put a jackshaft between the engine and the rear axle and had 2 chains. You might have to move the seat forwards but if you're redoing the front end anyways then you might as well lengthen it.

[@bobbybeyer2127]

As someone who has owned a CB900C, you guys probably want a CB900F. The C models were shaft-drive and had a pretty complicated system that transfers the power output to the right (opposite) side of the engine. Basically Honda only had 1 shaft drive assembly at the time, but still wanted to use their 900CC engine, so to make it work they had to get the engine power to the other side. You could MAYBE unbolt some stuff and somehow get the the sprocket on the left side of the engine, but you'd be going down a rabbit hole at that point
