Apologies if you already knew this.....
But were you all aware that your Super Dream wheels were date stamped?
Examples - 578 and 1180

I didn't know that but I believe most manufactured parts are date stamped,I remember many years ago working for Vandervell Bearings a date stamp was incorporated into the details ,It's just knowing where and what to look for,and certainly all moulded parts have traceability. regards Mike . PS I am enjoying this forum and as soon as I can post pictures I will post some of my recently acquired sd for the princely sum of £350.00

My 250N kicker shows 1178 on the front and 179 on rear.
CB400NA shows 580 on front, 480 on rear.
Will check the undercover in due course - although that bike is not wearing its original wheels.....front is NOS rear is very very very nice.

We can learn more about Honda's processes from back in the day with all this information.
I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall in that factory......that said I would probably have been swatted or electrocuted by a caged blue ring.

I'd seen the codes, but didn't twig they were dates. Checked all 3 versions, and they're all stamped.
