WHAT SHOULD I BUY?

Post by Grant » Wed Mar 17, 2010 6:46 pm

Got a 305 Dream on the way. It looks to be a 7 to an 8 original bike. I am going to use it for a beach cruiser (scooter if you will) around my beach community. If you were going to buy some options for it, what would you buy. What is out there?
Luggage Rack, bags, bars etc.?

Mini-bar (fill the side covers with ice and by the time you get to your destination: nice and cold!)

Luggage rack and crash bars. That's my thing; just a bit more chrome than a stock bike. Too much gets to be too much, if you know what I mean. I'd like some saddlebags for the convenience, but I think they ruin the lines.

If you get Bill Silver's CD ( which I highly recommend) it has a scan of an original accessories catalog. In fact, it has a scan of just about everything. Very fun to browse all the old literature.
