Good score. I too am about to get my first Dream. I live near Houston. I worked as a motorcycle mechanic for several years and have done a lot of restoration on bikes and cars.

Since my last post in this thread Ive moved to Maine and had to put the honda on hold. But this weekend I was able to pull it out and install the replacement key switch and it fired up!! Now to keep it running with a carb rebuild and hopefully will have her on the road in a couple weeks:)
Thanks to all the nice words from everyone. Ryan

Not sure to do a full restore, or just keep it original and get it running and safe to ride? I had one about 22 years ago that ran perfect, so I have not done much work on them. Guess the best way to learn is to dive right in!

Congrats! Any work done on the bike?
