I just bought a 1963 305 dream with only 400 miles showing on the odometer. Wondering if the tires on it are original. Anybody know what brands Honda used in 1963? The ones on it are Yokohamas. Thanks for any help.

hopefully just getting the new outer part will work, the splines on it were completely gone while the ones on the shaft were a little torn up but not totally destroyed.
Thanks for the information.

The guy I bought the motor from thinks the head may have been milled at some point, which would answ...

So I am having a problem with an oil leak around the head gasket on my dream. This is a project bike and I bought the motor as a supposed rebuilt. Just put it in the first time and it had major blow by and pushed oil out of the breather hose. Tore it down and found a compression ring in upside down....

It looks like your starting with a much nicer bike then I did. Cant wait to see it .Definitely keep me posted.
