1981 Honda CB900F Supersport · Ignition Parts Buying guide
The original CB900F ignition is transistorized, with separate spark units and coils. A fault affecting one cylinder pair calls for checks of that channel’s plugs, caps, leads, coil, pulser circuit and wiring before replacing a spark unit.

The Rick’s replacement coil has wires attached; coil 17-6803 requires separate 7mm high-tension leads. Aftermarket ignition systems have their own coil-resistance and suppression requirements. Do not select a lower-resistance coil or a different cap arrangement simply because it appears in this category.
Honda’s 1981 F specification lists D9EA as the standard U.S. NGK plug and DR8ES for Canada. The catalogue’s D9EA and DR9EIX listings should not be turned into one universal market recommendation. Match the full plug code and the installed ignition before ordering.
No. Honda specifies transistorized ignition. Identify the actual ignition hardware before ordering, especially if an aftermarket system has been fitted; the broad category title does not make points parts suitable.
No. One unit controls an ignition channel, but the coil, leads, caps, pulser circuit, supply and grounds must also be checked. Use the Honda test sequence to identify the fault before buying the electronic unit.
The supplied keys are for the replacement ignition and fork-lock assembly. Matching separate locks is not promised. Plan for separate keys unless the locks are professionally matched, and confirm the switch connector and mounting before ordering.
