My first Honda Dream - Found on the side of the road

Post by Christophertemple » Sat Sep 28, 2019 8:47 am

I found this for sale on the side of the road and bought it today. I had no idea what it was when I bought it but after researching I believe it is a Honda Dream maybe a 65. It runs great, now I have to see if I can get it titled. I have the original owners info and they were the original owner up until last year when they sold it at a yard sale. 6,400 miles. They did notarize a paper recording the sale and the frame code and I do have their name and phone number

Does this look pretty much original minus the windshield ? I have some metal saddlebags too that I will add a picture but I am not sure if they are original or not. I am thinking clean it up both mechanically and cosmetically but leave it original with the patina on it, ride it and smile.

I paid $900 bucks for it ...


I can't figure out how to get these pictures to show up on this forum... IMG tag doesn't work

First of all, welcome to the forum even though it is all messed up with all the spammers.
Next, congrats on the road find. Not sure how your state does it but in many you can have your state police do a vin check to find out if is not on the hot list. If not, then it is registered with a three year wait to get a title.
It looks to be a great find for the price. Folks here are very helpful with maintenance issues.
