Hi. I was a high school kid on an American base in Japan, graduated in 1962. The reason the badge says “Dream 300” is that the name of the bike in Japan was the “Dream Super Sport.” That’s what we knew it as. I think the Super Hawk designation was for the American market, but later used for other bikes, as well. Thanks for the video. That machine is my “dream” motorcycle. Road several of them but never fortunate enough to own one. The ones in Japan were primarily black and silver, not red. Again, you had a 305 Dream Super Sport on your hands. To my eyes, the perfect design. A work of art.
Gorgeous, had 2 in the early 80s, but loved my cd175 for my daily ride, sold all of them for peanuts, along with my husky 390 crosser to help pay for my first house😖😖😖
Imo a lot of thought went into the mfg of these bikes where beauty and function is balanced. The new bikes imo have let designers place bizarre looks over the functionality and comfort, and the lines don’t flow but zig and zag in unusual directions and are leaning towards the racetrack instead of a comfortable ride thru the country or commuting.
Hi, I might be. Where abouts are you located. If you want to message me via kosmotocustom facebook page I can give you my phone# and we could discuss. Thx
She looks gorgeus. Too bad there aren't that many in Europe and they aren't this clean and sound this absolutely pristine. I'm guessing you're in the US? You're very transparent with what was done and the pride on the work done. Can't take the eyes and ears off, such a lovely machine, congratulations. Don't know how you have the heart to sell it, I'm guessing you do restorations constantly 😂 Oh that speedometer. Lord help me
Hi and thank you for the very nice comment. Yes I’m in the Florida, US and yes I do 3 to 4 restorations per year. This is my 8th CB77 Superhawk, my oldest and arguably my best one. Thanks again for taking the time to comment.
Usually eBay and Facebook marketplace. Sometimes Bring a Trailer (BaT). I have a red cb160 and a blue one I’m putting up for sale soon. Also a cb350. You can private message me via my Facebook page “kosmotocustoms” if you’d like. Thx.
I buy a new face decal on eBay and take the speedometer apart, check and lubricate everything, install the new decal and then put the speedo back together. It is a pain to do but the results are worth it.

YAH Nice work . My Dad had one , from Colavito Bros. Washington St. Perth Amboy N.J. Sonny was a Great Guy.
Another beautiful example of a CB77. Such fine bikes!!
Absolutely magnificent. Beautifully done.
Thank you very much! Of the nearly 30 I’ve done, I think this may be my best work so far.
Great job!
Way better than new and attention to detail is second to none!
Stunning bike and a wonderful thorough job of restoration, she looks and sounds great, a real credit to the time an effort you put in ....🙂
Beautiful. I got a real soft spot for this bike. I got to ride one on the regular as a young teen.
Wow... that is an amazing resto!
had a 160 that looked identical, wonderful bike, and fast too! then later i got the cb 450. rode like a truck!
Beautiful work!
I had a used one in high school forty years ago. Still my favorite!
Gorgeous, had 2 in the early 80s, but loved my cd175 for my daily ride, sold all of them for peanuts, along with my husky 390 crosser to help pay for my first house😖😖😖
Nice job! Beautiful motorcycle.
Beautiful job. I'd love that in my garage
FYI, this bike has been sold, but stay tuned I have four more CB77s waiting to be restored.
Selling a bike that has been perfectly re chromed and restored is kind of a shame, It's super collectible long term

I have picked up two 305s one Cl and a CB plus an extra engine and a few boxes of parts. Wondering if you’d be interested. Enjoy your video

Euorpean model? Chain is on the right side! All my hondas had left hand side chains.
@@linusmadroneall superhawks had chain on the right. Honda swapped it to the left with the 160, 350, 450, etc.
I had one in 1966 model
What is the asking price for a resto like that?
@@flmason this bike sold for $10,000.
@@kosmjon2 Well worth it. The work it takes to do a resto like that is tremendous.
Where do you list bikes for sale after restored?
Usually eBay and Facebook marketplace. Sometimes Bring a Trailer (BaT). I have a red cb160 and a blue one I’m putting up for sale soon. Also a cb350. You can private message me via my Facebook page “kosmotocustoms” if you’d like. Thx.
Hello Jon, who does the speedometer restoration?
I buy a new face decal on eBay and take the speedometer apart, check and lubricate everything, install the new decal and then put the speedo back together. It is a pain to do but the results are worth it.
Can you do mine?
Btw… I just purchase a 63 CB77 with matching frame n engine #…. However, some people said frame n engine never match… is that true?
how much?
It was auctioned off on Bring a Trailer in November 2023. It sold for $10k
I’m working on a couple of 1965 superhawks that will be done early in 2024.
nice wow they are getting expensive @@kosmjon2
A credit to you.great work
