Re: 1969?

I'll be the third.
None of that bike were "BUILT" in 1969.
The bikes sold in 1969 had been built in earlier years.
Somewhere around here I have a HONDA Information Sheet to the dealers which shows the type and color and location of bikes that were available in 1969.
If I stumble across that info I'll share. ......................lm

I posted the literature Ed is referencing (or similar to it) back in 2011. It is on page 2 of the thread. http://www.honda305.com/forums/post40469.html#40469

Thanks Tom.
That isn't the data I mentioned.
I did find a Thec Sheet (dated May 14, 1968) which says the Black CB77 with Chrome fenders would be available at the supply locations starting May 28 to June 21.
It shows other CB77 info which I find interesting.
I'll add a copy when I can. ..................lm

Thanks, Ed. I should have realized it wasn't the same since mine was a sales brochure, not a manufacture to dealer spec sheet.

The clutch cable routing plus the right side engine cover and right side frame cover suggest an early model. Late model Dreams had the clutch cable exiting vertically from the cover and not routed through the frame cover.
