interchangeable parts.....

Post by brcree » Thu Jan 05, 2012 1:35 am

Is there a link in here or can anyone tell me where I can find a list of parts for Dreams that will interchange i.e.: fuel tanks.....handle bars.....seats etc.

Even though this link is labeled for Superhawks, most of the sites carry parts for Dreams also.

Many parts will fit different issue dates, but they may not be"correct".....if that matters to you.

Many parts will not fit at all.

Best to go by the parts diagram, which usually lists a range of serial numbers the part is correct for to make sure.

Caution that thread pitch changed for 3, 4, 5, &12mm threads from JIS to ISO somtime in 1967.......so you may encounter either size on a late model, or even a mixture of both.

Good luck on your progress!

Check this out.

This is reasonably priced and cross references virtually all of the Honda parts numbers in several ways. I have found it very useful. Saved me from buying a bike for which the missing parts were specific to that bike only. (read unobtanium) Helps a lot when you are considereing a parts bike purchase.
