Find this bike in Germany (2015), in parts with lots of work.
I restord the bike sinds 2015, and i'm now looking to get to now some of the history of this sandcast bike.
My question is : does somebody now something about this bike, were was it sold and driven, who were the owners of this bike, how did it being sold in Germany.

Many thanks !

Jan.

Hi, as in the subject says, i like to now/need some advise: what colour(NR) en type of paint i souled use on my sandcast engine cases (4539/E4689) and on the head and cylinder.
Souled i use a base ore not, witch color  and color number souled/could i use(for base and paint).
Can i use the same paint for the cases and the cylinder/head?
I belief there is a difference in the early and the later NR engine-cases ?
I do want to keep it as original as possible.

Thanks for al answers !

Still no one ho can help me/seen this plate before or ho nows more about it ?
As told: i became this piece frome a old motorshop-mechanic , his boss (Honda dealer)was back in 1968 (!) invided at the Honda factory in Japan, and he's been given this plate as a gift before he left ,may be a kind off merchandise/remberingplate (wormingup for the new bike to come).
This was before the CB 750 was launged, and it still had the name "Dream" on the plate.

Thats wat i now till now, and the qeustion is does anyone seen this plate before, got one, can tell me more about it.
Thanks !

Hi,
A guy give me a Seyei Fine China Plate with the text : Honda Dream CB 750 Suzuka Circuit.
He told me that his boss, back in the 60's, was in the Honda Factory in Japan (invided by Honda as being a dealer) for the introduction of the new Honda, and he became this plate back in 1968 (yes 1968 and not 1969 ! ).
The guy i have this plate from, was the mechanic of the motorshop till his pension, and he gave it to me becorse he new i own some of these Honda's (he thought i would like this plate and will keep it so it will be in good hands and wont be trown away) it was al these years at his wall at home.
There is a picture of a Honda with the 4 exhausts and number 1 on the steamline , driver on top, seems to be a Japanees driver to me, its clearley the CB 750.
Its in the color yelow ore orange, black text.
Does this say anyting to some one, i did never see this plate before.
Its a plate like a diner plate, fine china Japan, Seyei, and some japanees text on the back of it.

Can somebody tell me more about it ?
Thanks !

O,sorry, no its not a sandcast its a verry early diecast, but wit a lower number than the bookes say.
For the Netherlands its suppost to be a number higher than 103**** but i own a bike with a lot lower number than that.

And i also own other bikes, one has a number starting with 1009*** its a USA import-bike, i did buy this bike in the states and take it to the Netherlands last jear.
It neads restoration, it has matching numbers starting with 1009*** that means its a verry earley diecast-bike.
Its from 10/69.

I do own more Honda CB bikes, from 125 twin to the CB 750 '69 (and 3x K0 '70, and K 1 '71 and CB 750 K2 '72).
