Tough project... CB900C

[Raskolnikov]

Alright so tonight I'm buying a 81 or 82 i think CB900c, though it is a chopper custom. I has mini-ape handlebars and no gauges. It is pretty nice but I have to A) change the handlebars and B) Need gauges (it has none).

Does anybody know the size for the forks for clip-ons?

And does anybody know how to put gauges onto a bike with no gauges?

Thanks. I'm new at this... ahaha.

All help appreciated

Good thing about Honda, They used basically the same guages on most of thier bikes in the 80's. Ebay has them and a lot of junk yards. There should be a takeoff for the tach on the engine, might have a plug you will need to remove if the PO took the tach off. And the speedo drive is on the front wheel, just need guages and cables. Cables are available for 10-15.00 at most honda shops, they used the same ones for years and years on a lot of bikes.

Thanks, is the tach deal on the engine this thing that is rotating on the top of the head? I would guess so because it seems to turn faster with higher engine speeds..
