Not a KZ, but a Honda Baby Dream was created by Bama704
Hey guys,

I came across somebody selling a 1965 Honda CA95 pretty close to me with 2 parts bike to go with it. I decided I couldn't pass it up. Not sure what they are worth, but figured I would try to get it up and running and clean it up so the wife can ride it. Anybody have any experience with one of these little guys?

The motor turns over, the process will begin shortly getting her back to running. Any pointers throw them my way, and if anybody has a downloadable factory service manual, let me know!
If anybody knows any good forums for this little guy that would be sweet as well. This forum is so good, hope I can fine something similar for my new purchase.

Wow, looks like you got a pretty good deal. I don't think I could have passed that up either. Best of luck to you.

Nice find...I would have jumped on it also. There is a huge on-line presence of Honda Geeks restoring older Hondas...a good place to start is by joining www.VJMC.org

+1 on VJMC.

We've been members for many years. The depth of knowledge on the 60's Hondas is remarkable.

Good Ridin'

Very cool ......A good friend had one of these when we were 14-15..... 4 others a 50cc Allstate scooter, and a 90, 160 and a 305 Super Hawk. I had a little 50 Honda then moved on to a 100 Yamaha then went car crazy at 16...... . Was the best time of my life. Have truly been thinking of looking for a 305 scrambler but my 650 takes enough of my time and money already.

I turned one down. It was all rusted out and parts missing. The guy wanted $200.
