I just purchased this bike it only has 9000 miles on it and what seem to be very minor problems. I'm looking to get some imformation abut this bike. such as does the motor have to be runnig for the turn signals to work. How many miles does this motor go up to and where is a good spot to find parts online for this bike.

dave silver is the man to see about honda parts (google his name)
cb900 with only 9000 miles on it? seems very low to me but it could be genuine i suppose.they were never considered one of honda's better engines though.They are cheap as chips now though and a very cheap way of going quite fast (about 130 mph flat out). dunno about the C model, was it a custom varient? (if so it will be slower).

The turn signals should flash at all times check the relay, and they are known for the cam chain tensioner to not work properly.
Trick there is to take off the rocker cover loosen the bolt at the base of the rear of the cylinder block and then place a screwdriver in the top of the tensioner then retighten up the bolt. Keep an eye on the oil levels too they used to like eatind main bearings. Other than that a nice bike.
