Hi sasch; what wires did you have to order?

Do you mean the blue Dream? It's waiting for tires; I ordered a tire from the super store but I think it's too big (even tho I have seen that size---100/90x16 listed in two different tire sites as a cross for 3.25x16 but I think it;s closer to 90/90.) I ordered two Shinko SR714 in 90/80 from my local Honda guy only because he guaranteed that they would fit; should be here by end of week.

As far as the Black Dream is concerned, it's about ready for a test fire here as soon as I get done cleaning the carb---also I have a float on order from Honda (ya, a rectifier cost $107 but they have floats for $26).

Seen you had to put your bike away for the winter; this is the first winter in a long time that I can work on the bikes when it's cold out. I used to get out of the habit of working on them till summer---made it had to get back into repairing once nice weather returned----you get to be a rusty wrench!

Take 'er easy.

Hey Clarence,

Yeah she is tucked away for the winter... Nice so the black dreams getting ready for her second pass at life! Sweet.

I went with firestones from Coker tires.

Here is the link, cant remember what size I went with though...

But I got them with whitewall - I dont know if they still carry them, cant find em!
