Hi Does anyone remember the days when Superdreams came in Wooden Crates? (ie Delivered to Honda Agents in Wooden Crates)
I remember (almost 40 years ago) my local Honda Motorcycle Dealer in Essex saying that he was due to take a delivery of 6 Gear Superdreams and it that it would take 2 days before I could take the Bike home because it had to be Built Up from Kit Form (From Parts)
I signed up and did wait the 2 days and rode the Bike home. The Peformance and Fuel Consumption was outstanding. I am still riding Superdreams all these years later.
Regards Wilf

Regards Wilf They also came with a manual to put them together My mate Neil has a USA Spec Trident that was shipped to the U.S. about the time Triumph went under - it stood in a warehouse for 7 years still boxed in its crate before he bought it and re-patriated it back to the UK There was a thread on the Forum earlier this year I think about a 250 SD in a dealership, taken out the crate but never assembled

Chris (member Damon80) looks in from time to time. And I'm quite sure that he has images of a 250 or 400N in a crate.....unless I'm mistaken and it was another member.
No doubt if it was on the forum the image will now be missing - along with many other useful images due to the photo bucket fiasco.
The thread about the one Brit Pete is referring to is in the Crash Bar section of the forum - thread being called 'The Text'.

I saw one of the manuals of how to put them together from the crate for sale very recently on eBay or amazon....not sure which. They weren't completely dis-assembled, but the wheels were off, the handlebars and a few other bits I think....I'll see if I can find it again...
