I still have one......and in stock form. It isn't humdrum.......but it is a 1982 model in 2016. Still gets up and goes great.
10 speeds is over rated as you know. We never shift 10 times. Just put the transfer case shifter in high or low depending on your riding style....hi for highway and low for spirited torque. Just had it out for a little ride a few days ago.

The CB900C and CB1000C had the same 5 speed tran's with a dual range box. |

I had a 81. Bought new. Traded it 3 years latter with 36,000 on the clock. Had the Honda line fairing and Honda line color matched clam shell bags. I used the dual range as a 6th gear out on the highway. Most of the CB900s would develop a hinge/ woble sooner or latter. Mine would start the head shake between 120-125mph. Traded it for a new GL1200. Man I hated that 80 mph speedo on the CB900. Hit a exit ramp with the speedo pegged. Half way up the ramp the speedo was no where near the 80 mark. Ohoh. Figured out latter the I exited the freeway some place around 125.

Great looking bike PAVALKER! Like the day you brought it home, I bet. I had a 72 350CB that I kick myself for selling so I could buy, wait for it.... GOLF CLUBS. Stupid game. I gave up motorcycles for 40+ years but not golf. Stupid game.
