The 1982 Honda CB900 Custom was a cruiser bike in its third and final year of production, built by the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer primarily for the American market and succeeded in 1983 by the Honda CB1100C.
The bike came equipped from the factory with standard fittings, such as a four-into-four chromed exhaust system, a dual seat with a passenger grab handle, a pulled-back handlebar, a round headlight with a chromed ring, an analog instrument panel, a center stand, and cast aluminum wheels.
The CB900 was derived from the CB750K and closely related to the CB900F and CB1100F models, both derived from the CB750 line. The final drive and the rear suspension assembly came from GL and CX touring machines available at the time.
For suspension, the bike packed a 37 mm air-assisted telescopic fork on the front and dual air-assisted shock absorbers on the rear, while the stopping power was handled by two 280 mm discs with two-piston calipers on the front wheel and one 297 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel.
In the power department, the 1982 Honda CB900 Custom had its soul brought to life by a 901cc four-stroke four-cylinder air-cooled engine fed by four Keihin carburetors that helped deliver an output power of 95 hp with maximum strength at 9,000 rpm and 77 Nm (57 lb-ft) of torque available at 8,000 rpm.
