Need help ID bike

Post by WRBerg » Tue May 08, 2018 4:04 pm

Title says 1966 Honda 305 Dream. Engine stamp says CA77E 1022792. Frame stamp says 1022782. Is this actually a 66?

Crickets.?? WRBerg got no response. I will try. Can anyone help, mine is CA78-1009998.
My CA160 is CA160-1012219. Where is this information stored for review??? Need to know what year to get a title. Any info would be appreciated.

If you look at the wiring harness under the gas tank (maybe inside the frame) you will see a little white tag which records the date of manufacture date of the wiring harness. Bike date will be slightly later than that.

7-digit frame numbers are all late '64 onward and Honda did not split the sequence into years from then on so you have to do a little research. Luckily e3Steve has done that for us in the form of this list.

Talk about Crickets! You have been a member since 2008 and only made 9 posts.... :-)

These are CB77 numbers but the CA78 may be similar....

As for the CA160, this is the forum forum 250 & 305 owners so that will be somewhere else.

Honda published a list of numbers in the Parts manual for each bike. If you don't have a manual - it is a good idea to get one.
