My Dads DreamMy Dads DreamHave never restored a bike, but am planning on bringing my dads Honda Dream back to showroom condition this next year. I currently restore/preserve WWII vehicles, so a bike will be a nice change of pace. Doing a bit of research on line, it looks like parts are still available, which is usually not the case with some of my more rare vehicles. Some pics of my dads bike and some of my WWII stuff:

Re: My Dads DreamWhat you have is not a "DREAM".
It is a 1963, 150 CC "BENLY TOURING". ..................lm
Not sure about the Benley's but on the 305 Dreams it's on the left side of the bike - just below the swingarm pivot bolt by the footbrake spring and switch. Dan Baby DreamI hope that you haven't ordered the Shop Manual CD from the 305.com website.
If you have, prepare yourself for a long wait, past experience says your CD won't arrive. If you've ordered rom the site cancel your order if you can. BTW Your Bike has rev- counter drive fitted which wasn't standard on the CA95 model. If the rev counter was fitted and worked it would at least have needed a CB92 camshaft. Wonder what else might be lurking in there. I believe there were CB95 models too but quite rare, I understand that Honda supplied 150cc top ends to convert a 125cc CB92 to 154cc, perhaps you may have one of these.
