Well, I came across this Vintage 1954 Honda Dream 4E for sale, and I'm thinking I may purchase it. I enjoy vintage autos/bikes, especially Hondas, I think this would compliment my S600 nicely:






Obviously, it needs a total resto, but it could look like this:

 

Nostalgic! I dig the old school especially old Honda's.

 

Its probably one of the best bikes ive seen. You should go for it if its a good deal!

(Im not a huge fan of the trend with choppers)

 

Wicked, that'd be something to take out on a sunny sunday morning!

Is it missing it's seat?

 

 

Wow, I think that's actually really cool. I really wouldn't mind taking that on some sunny weekends.

Yeah, it's missing the seat and exhaust, and parts for these old bikes are virtually impossible to find, so they will have to fabbed up, or taken from a doner bike.

 

that beast is hella old. get it and restore it for sure

 

Single cylinder VTEC.

 

Before owning my del sol, honda was just **** to my eyes. Now, its wow, honda is the ****. Plus the old school ones are just beautiful. Get it. Fix it. Love it. Good luck!

The asking price on this Bike is 7000 euro, around $8400 (+/-) US.

The Dream D and E type bikes are extremely rare, and highly sought after, and almost impossible to find. A fully restored early Dream can fetch upwards of $30K, a mint unrestored example $50K+

 

$8400? i wouldnt get it for that much, dont care what kind of collectors/rare bike it is.

 

Well it is expensive, but you're not just buying a "motorcycle", you're also buying into a peice of history. Not just Honda history, but Japanese (and world) motorcycle manufacturing and economic history. After WW2, the Japanese economy was at or near depression, having turned into a militant society (militant is the sense that most manufacturing was done to support the war), only a few manufactures survived to produce anything for their consumer market, then Honda came out with this revolutionary 4-stroke, inexpensive, and easy to maintain motorcycle. This in turn sparked competition between the big 4 (Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha, Kawasaki) to produce the next best technologically advanced machines. Some say Honda, (along with the other big 3 of course) had played a key role in saving the Japanese economy.

Owning a peice from that key period in history is Priceless.

 

damn.....that's aged
