Thx for posting! In 1969 I was 7 years old, I had a Honda s90 i rode in the Mojave desert as a kid. My dad had a 1964 honda 305 dream Full dress bike. It was heavy as heck. he had it parked beside the house on its kickstand and I jumped on it one day , started it @ 7 years old, popped it in gear, bumped back on the kickstand and away i went, i did great until i had to stop, I finally figured out how to go slow enough to jump off while holding on to the handlebars and slowly bring it to a stop. Thanks for posting the video and bringing back that memory. '-)
I had one just about like this back in the day. It was a CA77, 305cc Dream. Mine was the dark blue color. You could use the electric start, or just kick start, depending on your mood.
OH MY GOODNESS.... That is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen... I truly love that bike... Thanks for an awesome upload that just made my day!!!!!!!!!!!
love these old bikes...I have a 66 with a rattle can white finish. Still looks good but not like this one. Guess I better perfect my rattle can technique. Great bike!
I was in an alley in Columbus Ohio in 1986 and saw a Dream in someone's garage. Owner came out and saw me checking it out and said for $100 and if I got it out that day it was mine. He said it had not run for years. I paid him and jumped it with my VW Bug and rode off with it. It was a '66 with Goodyear whitewalls. Someone had painted it green and added turn signals that screwed up the electric system. It made the headlight blow out a few times. Someone tried to steal it one night by loading it into a pick up, but they dropped it and drove off. After a few years and a divorce, I sold it for about $400. Dude saw the title and that I bought it for just a hundred and scoffed. I said take it or leave it and he took it. I wish I still had it.

How tall are you? I've always loved the dream, but I'm 6'2" 250lbs, my first bike was a ninja 250 and I always felt like a bear on a tricycle. I haven't had a chance to check out a dream in person tho

Love this sweet lil bike❤️❤️❤️
these were and still stunning bikes wa y a head of there time
Wonderful bikes, classy and represent an era gone by...of course not the same as an American or Brit bike, but they hold a special place with me.
I love it! I take it out probably once or twice a year whether it needs it or not.
If I may ask (being a total noob), what is the difference between a Jap and a Western bike from your perspective? Say for one above 300cc?
Bella bella bella😍

I had one in 60-s, but shure started the engine with starter motor, never by kick starting.
I want one of these so bad
Old dreams bikes I like it
np nice bike
Is this for sale?
how tall are you? I'm considering buying a similar one but I'm 6'3" and wondering about the fit
I'm 6'2", it is a small bike but not bad to ride if you just accept that it's small.
Wow, this sounds very similar to the Yamaha 350 Rajdoot they sold in our country some 35 years ago.
Is this a single piston engine?
two cylinder four stroke...
thought about it, but i cant bring myself to get rid of it
For Sale??
are these bikes worth some money now ? There's one for sale local dirt cheap
I'm not 100 percent sure what they are worth but I would say one in nice condition would sell for 2k
