    You're looking at this wrong.. It's absolutely impossible to have too many bikes, so what you ACTUALLY have is a shortage of garages..

    For sure the 305 dream. My oldest brother Wayne had a black 1963 305 dream. Unfortunately, he was sent to Vietnam and 1966 and do not make it home. He was killed in a chinook crash that he was the crew chief on. Someone stole his bike, took it down by the creek, took it completely apart, and that’s how we found it. I save the wheels off of his bike for keepsake. I begged my dad to buy me one just like Wayne had. We found one black in really good shape. I was so happy I rode the bike everywhere Panama City Beach many times which was 80 miles from home thought that was a long trip but I was only 13 at the time so yes the 305 has a very special place in my heart. I do not have the bike now, but I do still have my brothers wheels and hopefully one day I will be able to go to barbers and fine enough to put a 305 together that’s my dream. I am 66 years old now. Hopefully I will get it done. Thanks for sharing this with us out here Southeast Alabama, USA.☮️❤️

    What a great collection. I too love the 70s and early 80s Japanese bikes. Starting a restoration on a Suzuki GS850 81 now, but I had back surgery in November and the heavy work has to wait. I planned it all this way. Gotta heal now. I love the GPZ as it was a bucket list deal back in the day along with the CBX.

Put your male and female friends in the period correct style for each year of bikes make calendar or posters. I know I would love a calendar of them bikes keep up the great restoration work and maybe build a new shop. Lol

The thought of two builds at once is inspirational at the very least!!! I'll be watching! That segment about the Tohatsu.... That was some extra "Motorcycle Rewind" goodness right there!!! I love the odd and quirky! I don't know what their early bikes were like but I this day and age they make some great Diesels that power the world... Heck if they put half the effort into that old pop pop that they do to modern Diesels, your buddy has a real winner right there!

    I like your collection.
    I never knew Tohatsu made bikes.
    We had a few models of your bikes in our country. XS1 650, CB350, Dream 305, CB550K, Original CB750, CB750K, GPZ1100.
    I had one of those CB750K. In 1979 I bought a crashed one the same colour. It was less than a year old, and I got it back on the road in a jiffy. It was the only 4-cylinder bike I ever owned. Traditionally everything motorcycle in my country is expensive, and the general public do not like them. It was a nice bike to ride, but could have had a 6th gear. Our traffic situations, poor winding road surfaces are very hard on motorcycles and vehicles in general. Maintenance costs are very high.
    Now i am 68, and I have a 2year old Made in India Yamaha FZ25 that takes me around.

    I started out on a 1946 & 1948 Whizzer bike. The 48 was for parts. First motorcycle was 1961 Honda 305 Dream in 1963 to ride to high school.
    Had a chance to swap it for a 1963 Triumph TR6 that I had my first crash on in 1964. Rode it for two more years and swapped it for a 1963 BSA Goldstar. Got drafted into the army and did my all expense paid tropical vacation. Got out of the army in 1968. Only bike you have that I would love to own is that Kawasaki W1 650 twin that looks like the old BSA Super Rocket. Alas, about all I can do with it now is park it in the living room and polish it and maybe take it around the block once a month. Maybe just start it now and again.

    Very nostalgic collection. I went from a Honda 55cc step through to a Yamaha100 twin to a Honda 305 Dream, my first “big bike”. Loved it except for the very smooth seat that was a great source of saddle sores! One thing I notice when I see restored models is that no Dream has built in turn signals. Mine did. Very square looking just like the rest of the bike.

    • @motorcyclerewind

    From the UK: - And I've said this to you before - I'd sure love to see you get an MZ {East German / under Soviet rule with exceptional quality alloys for the time / place} preferably a TS250/Supa 5 {as I doubt you'd get the race quality modified RT125} but its a great historic relic in its own right! Even though the domestic version was incredibly tame, detuned and engineered to last rather than race (arguably, Walters unique "exhaust resonance" design is the reason for Suzuki's modern success - as well as most modern Micron 2T exhausts.... A MZ with a "tuned" exhaust, and it's rider, mysteriously disappeared into the back of a non-description Japanese van during the ISDT, the following years Suzuki NAILED IT! 🤔) It'd be great to see you get one and even better to see you pimp it up to ISDT race spec 😍😍 Anyway, despite all that, your Kwaka GPZ is a testament to both engineering and your perseverance! I can't blame you for never wanting to get rid of that beaut! That bikes story drew me to your channel and with your stories of Yoda, inspired me to get the water filled Deauville in my yard back up and running.... I'm very thankful for your motivation!!!

    I had a Yamaha XS2 with a 740cc big bore kit I bought off of a mate. It did 85000 miles and had shortened reverse cone megaphones on it and flat track look. My mate was skint but did a great job on it. Great bikes and nicer than the later ones. I also years later had a us custom xs650 . That was good . Boyer Branson electronic ignition packed up. My nephew had it as I gave it to him when he passed his bike test at 43 years old. I'd recommend Suzuki GS1000, 850G , 750 and 550 all bullet proof 4 cylinder bikes that are in my opinion some of the best 4 cylinder air cooled 8 valve engines ever made. The Kawasaki Z650c with slide carburetors was a great bike too of 1978 . Yamaha XT500 , XJ600, XJ900 shaft drive . It's subjective of course . The Honda CB 750 and 550 were great bikes too. Now many are crazy money like Kawasaki Z900, Z1000. But Honda VFR750 and 800fiw, Fix of 1999 are still cheap and another great bike is the Suzuki DR650se from 1996 to present but Suzuki GB never imported them into the UK sadly. But my next bike may well be a Suzuki V Strom 1000 or 650 or a Moto Guzzi . The only thing putting me off the guzzi is electrical gremlins, build quality and cam followers like on the 8v Griso which self destructed in 10000 miles.

    I feel for you, at one time I had 14 licensed motorcycles in my garage. It is like a disease. Can't drive past an old beast leaned up against a barn. Like mistreated puppies, they just need someone to love them. Eventually I had an awakening event. Went crazy and just started listing them on e-bay. Made money on some, lost on most. But was able to walk through the garage to a "running" motorcycle. I'm down to 4 now which seems to be equilibrium between rid'n and fixing. I have my fathers T160 triumph which is always up for some maintenance. Everything else is fuel injected and more about user friendly rider than maintenance hungry project.

    I've found...
    1 motorcycle is nice and okay to maintain.
    2 motorcycles is about your limit... one to ride, one as your occassional fun bike and backup
    3 motorcycles and now you're doing more maintenance work, polishing, and headaches than a friggin car
    I'm stuck at 3 now and unhappy that I went from 2 to 3... for real. Esp. since #3 is the one least useful and least reliable that should be axed first. I've got a CMX250, a CM450, and a VT750... I should of bought a 350 instead of the 750 or a light pickup truck.
    If you've got more than 2, you probably need to get rid of some to some people with no motorcycles that could use them to stay mobile. A lot of people can't keep up repairing and keeping a car running.
    The equivalent to your Honda Dream is a 85 Honda Rebel for me, the first year they made them. My sister bought it from a crackhead who had beat it to death... she left it neglected in the rain abandoned... and I desperately needed a way to go to the grocery store and back using as little gas money as possible, so I tore it all the way down, repainted it, restored it, and that bike saved my butt. Still got it, and rebuilt the carb last week. It's my financial apocalypse bike.
    Nice collection Air cooled inline Honda twins for the win! High five! Get them back to stock!
    If I had some 60's and 70's Honda I'd restore them too. The Golden Era of Honda. We have a motorcycle graveyard here and the old man is a crazy old coot... if I didn't have enough motorcycles already I'd go shopping. I content myself by just window shopping Facebook marketplace.

And then a 1979 XR80 then an xr100 and then an 83 or 84 CR80 is head dual shock so I know it was early 80s but then dual shocks were freaking awesome that was the second owner of that one and it was in pristine condition the guy who bought it brand new Brody Petty consistently for a number of years but took very good care of it and it was stored indoors. Kept it in his basement which was fun trying to pull it out of the basement LOL it was covered in dust but man it fired right up this was right around 85, 86 so the bike wasn't that old when I purchase it and it was still in an Immaculate condition and it was fast . My first two stroke that was actually one of my biggest regrets was selling that bike my first street legal bike was a 1982 Honda 450 Nighthawk which sat for a number of years in a shed. I tore it apart and got it running gave it a bath. And that was a very good running bike my next street bike was an Enduro which was a 69 Yamaha 175 Enduro. And I also got to ride around on my mom's boyfriend's 1984 Suzuki LTD 1000. The only reason why I was able to ride around on it was because when he bought it it did not run and he let me rebuild it and put a 4 into one header on it and oh my god did that thing sound good .

    XS-2, without a doubt! Followed by the W2 SS Kawasaki. Unfortunately, I live half the world away "Down Under".
    You seem to have so many more opportunities to find the older bikes. The are not common down here, and I have no idea where they might be. The climate here in Victoria is not hard on the bikes, and if they are tucked up under cover, the rate of deterioration is less than in the US where the climate is more aggressive.
    You also have more freedom to ride and test the bikes where you are. Over here the police will be right on to an unregistered and uninsured bike and throw the book at you. Bike registration is about $AUD 850 but you can get a lower price for a 25 year old bike. You still need to have it "RWC" (Roadworthy examination) and the fee for that is unregulated and can be very expensive.
    If you are looking for ideas, I would love to see a Bridgestone GTR or the GTO 350s. They were really something. Even a Bridgestone Hurricane Scrambler 175 was pretty good. Another one would be the Hodaka Ace 100 or the SuperRat or the Combat Wombat. These two strokes from the 70's were light, and fast enough. They have very simple technology, and you would have a ball with them..

      Thanks for watching from a world away. We are pretty fortunate with the ability to find these old bikes.

    How do you like front disc brakes vs old skool?

      I have a love hate relationship with them. I love the improved braking. Not a fan of one more thing to fix before I get to ride it. Thanks for watching.

    Would be interested in the '78 CB550 if available. I live in Spokane, Wa so do you help ship, my cost of course. I have an interesting story how my Mom refused to let me have a motorcycle in 1966, 305 Cl77 to be exact. Stumbled across your UA-cam channel for first time today and really enjoyed it, thanks!
