I have obtained a CB900F (1980s) it doesnt have an earth strap fitted.
Can any one tell me if thet have the strap fitted to the frame and/or motor andif so where on the motor.
It appears the strap may attach to a bolt behinh to the rear of the clutch.
Cheers

I had a 79 900FZ...can't remember where the earth strap went...
But I would put 2 in... batt to motor / motor or batt to frame...
Covered all yer bases... Any bolt on the motor or frame will do
as long as it has a good clean contact... But they uasly use one
of the starter motor mounting bolts as thats the highest drain item...

That would be my first guess & never a bad option.
