| AMIDST ALL THE V-twins, V-fours and now even V-threes, Honda's inline four-cylinder CB900 is still a firm favourite. Introduced four years ago it was developed from Honda's lOOOcc formula one machine. Few changes have been made sicne 1979, which shows just how much thought had been put into making the 95bhp street machine. The 900cc is a good all-round capacity for the serious big bike rider, it's not that large that it can't be twisted in and out of London's rush hour traffic, and it's fast enough to rocket you from zero all the way to the police station in a matter of a few seconds. It's nice to be able to blast away from anything and everything while keeping the revs to a minimum, with hardly any vibration felt through the footrests, handlebars or mirrors. But also sitting in a most comfortable position, unlike the radical Katanas and such-like that have you twisted in all sorts of awkward back-breaking, wrist-wrenching and nut-knack-ering positions. Handlebars are the black clip | |
