Re: 1965 Dream for sale 1019 miles!

That is a BEAUTIFUL Dream! She looks just great and ready to ride like the wind. I also have a '65 Dream and I'm having issues finding a modern replacement for the fuel petcock at the bottom of the tank. Yours looks like it has a nice chrome updated petcock, could you please let me know where you fo...

Re: petcock bodies from thailand

Where are you finding these petcock bodies? I have a '65 CA77 and I need to rebuild the petcock or find a modern replacement that fits. I thought I found a modern petcock with a 3-hole base that would bolt on but had several leakage issues.

Re: should the side stand be chrome?

Re: Set of Buco bags and mounting brackets

I have the exact same Buco bags on my '67 CA77 and they're beautiful !!! I've never wired up the lights in the back but it's great having a spot to carry a few things, granted they're small but they look great on the bike.

Re: Replacement for '67 CA78 old style battery?

I have a '65 305 Dream (CA77) which originally had the long thin acid battery and I always had to top off the acid. I finally found the "Mighty Max YT12B-4" sealed battery. It measures about 5 7/8" x 2 3/4" x 5 1/8" (H-W-L)) and it fits !!! Granted the width is very tight at the base but it squeezes...

Replacement for 67 CA78 old style battery

Here's what I've done to resolve the issue - until I can upgrade to Frank's mod kit that allows sealed battery & still has room for tool tray. 1. Raised tool tray holes up a little more than an inch, gotta keep them parallel and watch that corners are still within limits of the cover. 2. My cables w...
