In order to help others find info on a particular bike, be sure to put the year, make or model of bike that you are asking a question about, in the Topic Title. This will allow people to pass by posts they have no interest in.
Wow, that looks nice.

No, regular American 900F stripe kit. They were either silver, with these stripes, or black (with red kit), but I decided to go with blue instead of silver. Actually, I was going to go pearl white with a 1981 red kit, but that changed.
Thanks for the compliments!
Thanks for the compliments!
For the CB900f I am about to begin restoring/resto-modding, I think I will go with pearl white paint with custom factory look decals in red and blue.

Wow, I guess I missed a bunch of your posts. One question was how it ran. It's okay, but needs further tinkering. That can all be done now that I got the bodywork painted and back on. The bike was free, so I don't think I'll ever be upside down in it. Here are a couple of pics. I need new tires and brake lines, to begin with.
Here is the before picture again, and what it looks like now. All the bodywork, except for the tank is original to the bike. My buddy that gave it to me certainly isn't an idiot, but he acts like one sometimes.
I saw this over on the CB1100F site, nice looking bike and I like what you done with it. The G looks great, also. I just picked an '81 900f, working on getting it back together over the winter.
To me, there's a place for custom paint, & for original paint. If I pull up at bike night & see Tornado's 1100 F & Deuce's 900 F sitting on the far side of the parking lot, I'd say "Oh Shoot" look, there's an ole "83" 1100 F sitting over there beside that blue bike with the blue stripes. Both bikes look great, but I know what the 1100 is by the paint, when I get close enough to read the reading on the side of the 900, I'd say that says 900 F, but they never came in that color. Don't get me wrong, congrats to both of you, both bikes look great !!!
Since any bike can be restored to original paint colors so long as the bodywork is intact, I say go for the look you want. I was thinking of putting the '82 900f back to silver, as it was stock, but I know I will get a kick out of making it more unique for riding.
