Honda CB900F - The First Production Bike with a 16-Valve 4-Cylinder Engine

[@oldschoolgrech]

Note: The U.S. got the CB750F, while Europe got the CB900F in '79 too, thus when I stated that it was the first to have a 16-valve 4-cylinder engine it can apply to just the CB750F if you are from the U.S.. The U.S. got the CB900F around two years later, in 1981. P.S. I was told that the CB750KZ, was issued in 1978 in the States, and that may therefore be the first one with a 16-valve engine. I am sceptical and not sure about this though, since as far as I know the 16-valve engine was introduced in '79. However, I felt I should mention such a comment here.

Ever since I bought my black 81' CB750K off the showroom floor, and there was a black CB900F sitting there, it has become my dream bike. Even over my insane 04' Yamaha V Max. Great vid!

I own a 1982 CB900F and it has rubber insulated front engine mounts.

Cheers. 😊🍻

This bike reminds me of the Honda sabre 1100 except the sabre has a square headlight

I have the 1980 CB750F Super Sport. These are great!

[@oldschoolgrech]

Love these! Great bikes :)

[@omegabiker]

That bike has a lot of character, looks comfy too.

[@oldschoolgrech]

Cheers. I agree, it is quite comfy thanks to its riding position and wide seat. 🙂

I loved this bike in the 80s, never had one though, I bought a GPz750 instead. I also had a GS850. Your bike is in great condition, nice to see this classic again!

[@oldschoolgrech]

Cheers! O wow you had a GPz! I'd love to own one someday. The GS are great too. I've never seen one in person though. Thanks for your comment. 🙂

[@Sunburst75]

@@oldschoolgrech Yeah they're both becoming rare. The GS850 was the most comfortable bike I've ever sat on, plus it was shaft drive. I really wish I'd kept it!

First 16 valve Production Bike is the Widow maker Kawasaki Z1 1972 though.

[@oldschoolgrech]

Hi, that was 8-valve not 16-valve. 🙂

[@Zoko1964]

Widow maker was actually the nickname given to the H1 H2 two strokes because of their turn of speed, poor handling and inadequate brakes.

[@ChrisR57]

Nice clean bike Grech! Sounds great too. I bought a new 1980 CB750F when I was 23, but had to sell it 3 years later. I always wanted another F bike, so when a friend was selling a showroom condition 1983 CB1100F, I bought it as a 50th birthday present to myself!!

Not quite true,the CB900Fz and CB750Kz were both officially 1979 models but the 750 was actually launched in late 1978 making it the first 16v 4cyl motorcycle.

[@oldschoolgrech]

Cheers, thank you for your comment. I was told about this by another person too. Then it is probably true if one is from the US. Thanks.
