Gday Dianne

Excellent web page thing on that bike rebuild mate. Very cool and well done.

Only problem I could see is that it makes me feel slack for taking so long on my little Dream that I put it in storage.

Thanks for that. I was playing around with the bike and checking wiring to the coils and cleaning the points trying to find this miss fire. When the left set of points were open I put my thumb on the points shaft and pushed it "side to side" while I couldn't feel or see the shaft moving I could see ...

So far I have only been able to find 2 options. Classic Cycle Parts (Ebay) has after market coils for $100 for the 2 coils but with no HT leads. Charlies Place (web site) has Dyna coils for $282 for 2 coils and HT leads. I was thinking of still using my points set up for now. But if I decide to go f...

what coils would you use on your bike

Hi there I have a CB77 1964. I still haven't fixed the miss fire in it and I thought I would consider replacing the coils and leads just because they are 50 odd years old. While this may not be necessary, it would give me piece of mind that the coils and leads are good for a long time to come and th...

G'day Gordon
I bought them from Classic Honda Restoration. I rang them to have a quick chat to make sure I was ordering the right brake shoes. I also found a few other bits and pieces to fill the package and spread the cost of shipping over more parts than just brake shoes.

Fantastic. Thankyou I put a couple of O rings in temporarily just to test the bike in my local area, but I will chase up the correct parts with this info. I have no fuel leaks but one cylinder is dropping in and out so now I'm waiting on new spark plugs. Getting there though. Have a good one Scott

Thanks for responding. I had a look on ebay and the cheapest is about $34 and all I really need is the 2 parts. I was hoping to find a place that just sells O rings but looking at the photo on ebay the gasket between the petcock and the tank is not an O ring in cross section. I'll ring Col on Monday...
