We all live in a yellow superdream, a yellow superdream, a yellow superdream. Sorry, lock down post, please bear with.

Absolutely love it
Mr Honda made a mistake when he did not produce a yellow one

Love the colour, almost as good as the lime green one I used to have...

Looks great with the Silver Wheels and would look OK with Black Wheels
Would not look good with an NC with Gold Wheels - this will not be the colour for SME

What happened to that one Ian? It's changed colour a few times, but I still have it Nick. I bought it about 15 years ago. I wasn't looking for a Superdream or classic bike, I just wanted a cheap bike to go to work on & it fitted the bill & was my style of bike - old school. I wasn't keen on the paintwork, but whoever did it, it was a pro job, and in a lot better condition than the rest of the bike. I rebuild it that first winter, to tidy up the frame & other bits - and get rid of the Renthal dirt bike handlebars! A few years on, and parking up, another biker said 'that looks like an old bike, what is it?' I knew then I needed to make it look a bit more like a Superdream. This was 2009, before the 1st SD forum started up & as I remembered it, SDs were blue, with a contrasting blue flash & 'HONDA' on the tank, so that was the direction I took I'd never done decals before, so I just pulled the backing off, aimed at where I wanted them & stuck them on dry - somehow I manged it without too many wrinkles & creases Once the forum came along, I soon found out the 400NA had a different decal set up, but it was a few more years & another rebuild before I corrected my mistake It's laid up in the garage after the winter atm, and will probably stay that way this year, but hopefully I'll get out on the other 2 before too long.

Wise not going near silver. I honestly don't know how Bodie keeps that bike from going in the sea, the roads over there can't be that long.
It is a worry.

That's why, with the current 40mph limit, I've temporarily removed most of the Silver bodywork from my 400N & fitted some old black bits

Got to Buster, the tax ran out last month & she hasn't bothered renewing it in the present circumstances. It's been laid up all winter & now the only time we can use the bikes is essential shopping & the Ninja doesn't have a top box so she uses the YBR - it's better suited to the 40 limit anyway. I did put a Givi plate on the RSA so she could fit the top box on that, but she reckons if the fuzz see her on that bike they'll think she just riding it to enjoy herself & pull her over
