Don't know if I ever had so much fun with a Subie but..

Got the 66 Honda Dream I've been restoring for a friend running and moving today. Took it down the street. Exhaust leak, bias ply tire from about 1975 and all. Shakes like a harley but seems to have a little more power than those old H-Ds even out of the little 305cc she's got. The ride is simply amazing!!!

Was this one of the 'nice pink' ones with the square shocks and headlight. Doulble sided twin leading shoe brakes, reved to 10,000 rpm.

And the Brits said they would never last.

Yes it would be. No pink though. Must've been an aftermarket color . Last inspection on the thing was in 85. The cable driven shoe brakes definately have some issues stopping but overall it runs like a champ. Granted it is only showing 9k on it but then again the speedo is broke.
