    Nice work on this one, especially like the pipes and clean look! ;)
    Let me just say that there are 2 things I would have done
    differently, but it's not mine, so it's cool. 8) ;)

Likely a CB160. They look the world like a CB77 (305cc Super Hawk) except... The Cb77 has drive chain on the right side, very rare. Also the diameter of the pipes is a visual tell. Its just smaller overall. I spent some time on one back in the day with a 200cc Powroll kit and 2-1 pipe. Very fun.  Currently own a CB77.

It looks to be a CB160 "Sloper".

         Right you are Bill, it's Jason Lee's CB160 Cafe that was posted over on the Twins sometime back and I reposted it in an ebay listing on hondatwins.com later.
