While searching for ideas I came across this bike and saved the picture but don't know where to find out more information about it.

Looks like an inline 4, shaft drive, wheels look Yamaha or Harley Dyna or sportster or early 80's Honda.  Seat and tank are generic, run of the mill, yawn, cafe stuff.  Maybe Carpy?  That is all I got on that crap picture.  A close-up would yeild many more details and sources of parts.

I'm seeing 3 pipes. It looks like it's probably a 79. Like how it looks.

I was going to say Google now has a feature where you can drag pictures into the search area. Pretty neat stuff.
