Great info! If I understand this correct, a CA77 frame with the 1961 SN (CA77-10001 to 11980) could've had either the "breather tower" engine SN (CA77E-110001 to 110900) or the subsequent design SN (CA77E-110901 to 111400). It would be cool to find something that would identify which design was in m...

OK, back on topic, "Motors". I've been researching a little and see 1 set of early engines cases on ebay with the breather tower that G mentioned. The numbers indicate that it's a C77 engine versus CA77. Any idea when those style engine cases were discontinued? I'd just like to confirm that my origi...

Yea...you can see on both the lock and the stem hardware that someone sprayed some paint in there and a few other places including the tank and frame. It's a shame...but at least that's the worst example of over-spray and the color does seem to match. I'm thinking maybe they did it to address paint ...

Based on the list in G's first post, it looks like a '61 frame, probably titled in '62. Wiring harness will probably say 1961. I like the spirit of taking it back to original, and having it in your living room. I just came in from a 50-deg shop. Married? We're tearing the house apart in the spring ...

I apologize for being off topic but since we discussed Honda Serial Numbers on this thread earlier, I wanted to share a pic of my frame number. Doesn't exactly align with Honda's list...but maybe that's not so unusual? MGH

Again....thanks to all for the help! I'm still in the learning stage about this bike and it's history so I expect my questions are just starting. I'll keep you posted if I find out anything from past owners. G-Man, Seems odd that the levers and Perches were swapped...but I guess if someone was looki...
