that's what some guys started calling their dohc 750K bikes after putting a 900f motor in the frame. mine started life as a brown '79 cb 750k, spoke wheels, single front disc brake and a drum rear brake, a very comfortable bike to get around on. I did a tune up, oil change and cam chain adjustment one day and the cam chain didn't adjust but it did saw a hole through the front of the engine, i'll skip the rest of that story. so now I needed a motor but I couldn't find a dohc 750 motor. I came across the 900f motor but at the time not many people had done the swap and even the guy I got the motor was unsure but for $125 including the carbs what did I have to loose? what I found out was I could use the front motor mounts from the 750 but 900f motors are rubber mounted at least in the rear so I headed to the Honda dealer and ordered the parts needed

other than the rear motor mounts every thing was plug and play,I had it back on the road in less than two weeks that's when I discovered a very dangerous problem. the single disc just wasn't up to the task of stopping a machine that was capable of going over 165mph. phase two, I found a cb750f rolling chassie. it had no title and no body work, I didn't care I wanted the rear swing arm and disc brake setup and the front fork and wheel assembly, I swapped them on my super-K but couldn't figure how to hook up the rear brake. the difference in power, lets just say WOW!! and yes I would do the engine swap again. i had a mac four into one on the 750 motor and used it on the 900 motor, the header sits closer to the bottom of the motor and the filter housing will not slip between the pipes but you can that the filter housing off and turn it down to remove the oil filter, the 900 motor is about one cylinder fin taller than the 750 motor
