Enjoy!

a BIG thank you to both of you!
Now, when all else fails, we CAN read the instructions!

Your more than welcome sir. As for the instructions. The ignition switch alone on these Dreams are more complicated than our Wings ;)

e3steve it was great to be involved with this. I was honored that you asked me. Now I can say I worked with a guy from Spain :) You sure didn't waste any time getting it straightened out and up. If you need anything else you know where to find me. Ride safe everyone. Cheers, Paul

Paul's a true gentleman, everyone; I asked him, via email, if he would mind scanning for me to collate & upload. He replied immediately: "Right now I'm very busy in the shop and don't have any extra time but will make an attempt to do it his weekend if that's OK with you". That was Thursday. I had the entire set of emails, comprising 36 individual scans, ready for processing & PDFing by Friday afternoon.

It wouldn't have happened without your kindness, dedicated scanning & clicking of 'Send', Paul. A true sharer of information. Many Dreamers now have an easier life with their bikes thanks to your unselfishness.

Thank you gentlemen, it looks great!
Don't know if I'll ever have the opportunity to own a Dream but I added it to my collection of manuals, you never know and it's interesting reading anyway.

I hear you!
When I first got my Dream the key was not the correct one for the switch.......so I thought, no problem, I'll just replace it with a hidden on/off toggle switch....or a universal auto ignition switch(WRONG)!

I think 2 DPDT's will do it , but still not quite sure!

...on p33. I'm in the throes of correcting it, but the original shows (showed) the 'air screw' and the 'idle screw' with transposed annotations. Once corrected the annotated text will be obvious.

EDIT: both versions on Mediafire have been corrected. Well, p33 has, at least. Any other errors anyone might spot, please post here and I'll investigate. At least we'll then have an audit trail of corrections.
