I just purchased a 305 Dream that looks like any other late model Honda Dream, but the frame number is CA78 while the engine number is CA77E (like ussual).
Was this a police bike or something? Why the 78 instead of 77?
Please help.

What is special about a CA78 Dream?
Re: What is special about a CA78 Dream?Sorry, nothing special about your Dream. That is the common numbering system. Oilleak

Re: What is special about a CA78 Dream?After 1965???????????????. ..........lm
CA78Honda ran out of CA77 frame numbers about 1967. They stareted using the CA78 designatio
Daven on the frame. This caused problems in some states because the MSO stated the model as CA77 but the frame number as CA78-xxxxxxx.
Re: CA78HONDA didn't run out of numbers.
The CA78 was used to denote a US market bike. ..............lm
I have a C78, frame number C78-100541, and is build in 1963, sold in 1964 in amsterdam, has tubelar steering and a very rare tail light with the dream 305 in clear plastic. (Have you seen this before? at the CA72 / CA77 forum), just letting you know. I'm the third owner, and I'm pretty sure that it is all original.
Hello Jensen.
