Bike being slowed by missing nuts and bolts, was ordering up from Silvers, stopped at £250+. Ordered up a proper zinc/nickel coating kit for £250, I have two doner superdreams with nuts and bolts attached, they will do. While adding the bits to my Silvers Account, I was amazed at what they can charge for a nut, the nut was dearer than the bolt for goodness sake!!! Basket deleted PS, I was ordering bits up for my other Dream that needs resto'd , hence the £250, rather than just built as is the case with this one. Gee.     |

are you building your bike in the living room gee. I am Steve, nice and cosy, no dirty parts, that's why I was allowed. No oil in the engine, fully rebuilt. Only oil was the transit oil on the fork legs. Will be a different story for the other one, shed for it. Gee. |

Rona actually encouraged it, said it might make me get off my arse and work on it. She loves me. |

Don't know if you're in the VMCC Gee, but someone put a nice little article on the 400 Dream they've had since 1986.

Gee Another issue I have found recently, other than price, is that the same Honda fastener part number no longer looks the same as the original, especially Bolt/washer fasteners, they have scoop heads. A couple of examples are the one's on the clamp fasteners of the lower yolks, and later model SD exhaust clamp bolts |
