There was a CS76 produced in"60" and CSA77 produced from "60" to "63", but I have very little information on either. They both had the upswept pipes and were visually identical to any other Dream, except for the pipes and flat bars. Known as the "Dream Sport".

There were also the CS71 available in other markets, as well as a CS72. I have a japanese contact that wants to sell me his CS72, but it's a bit pricey for me....

I wasn't aware they had a really hot cam........!
