"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis

Yes, it looks like it has a small flyscreen over the headlight and a strap-on bag on the passenger seat. It looks like one of the earlier models with the 4-1 muffler on the left.
I think the wheels are the give-away.

  That was my first thought also Mike when I was looking at the pic.
