The Bol d'Or as the name suggests, is resolutely in the sports bikes’ category.
The Honda CB 900 Bol d'Or is marketed in spring 1979, after a presentation to the Motorcycle Show in Paris the previous year.
The engine of the CB 900 Bol d'Or marks a real break with the production of the previous decade.
If the engine is still an inline 4, it now is equipped with a double head camshaft and four valves per cylinder.
It proves to be both flexible and powerful: the power comes gradually until 5 000 rpm, and is omnipresent until 7000 rpm.
Afther this rpm-range, the CB 900 Bol d'Or fully deserves its name.

The here presented CB 900 is a 900 FC model from 1982, being the latest model of the Bol d'Or.
The following changes have been made to the machine: 4 in one exhaust, shock and fork stiffener.
The distribution chain, pistons and rings have been changed at 43,300 km (invoice available). The machine has just been serviced by a Honda dealer at 45,000 km (invoice available).
It is in perfect working condition. Available in France with a French road registration.
