1964 Scramber "Return to Rideable"

[Hahnda]

the ca77 Dream looks like this.



You definitely have a Scrambler.. What is the number on your engine?

[MrTexasFreedom]

I think you have a CA77 engine in there.

The engine number is: CA77E-1017193
The frame number is: 316510

Thought it looks like this bike.

thoughts?

You have a Dream engine.

The picture that you linked to is not a CA77, its a Scrambler. motorcycle-specs.com is WRONG!

Your scrambler originally had an engine with 2 carbs.

Hahnda-

Thanks for the clarification! Now I'll know which clutch plates to buy, along with a lot of other parts....

Well, now the "carb" versus "carbs" makes sense! Hang on to that stock carb, you may have trouble getting it to run right with the Mikuni carb! Avoid the all fiber clutch plates. There are some really great threads on this site explaining what parts to use for your clutch.

The air filter I ordered arrived. Problem is the gap between the carb intake and the gas tank support is too narrow for the air filter to fit. I'm thinking about putting a 90-degree elbow in there. Is that a bad idea?





Failing that, I might remove that spacer between the carb mount and the cylinder (see below photo):



Also, on the kickstarter side, should the key really be mounted below the seat here?



On a kind of different topic, where can I get tires like this? I need to replace the front- it's dryrotted.



Should I be concerned about this blemish on the tank? Is it some kind of patch job?




Thoughts?

thanks,

mtf

hey Texas
looks to me like that blemish on your tank might be body filler or a thick coat of paint thats just pealing a bit
