How long is a dream?

Post by fly5465 » Wed Sep 10, 2008 11:06 am

Hi All,
New here. Say, can anyone tell me what the overall length of a 65' Honda Dream is? I want to know if I can fit it in the the back of my small pickup with the tailgate up. I would like to put it straight in, not at an angle. Also, what is the approx weight of the bike?

Thanks,
Dale

Erich,

Thanks for the fast reply.

Bummer, doesn't look like it will fit with the tailgate up, I think I have a 6' bed. I used to have a CB160 and it fit fine.

Thanks again,
Dale

It will fit.....Easy!

Put the front wheel off to one side of center and tie it down to both into both front corners. Then, lift the back of the bike towards the other side until the rear tire rests against the side of the bed. I do it all the time.
