CA95 in a movie?

It's touted as a CA77 but it looks to me like a CA95 with the chain cover painted black.

It's hard to tell from the quality of the picture, but the give away is the chain, It's on the left, the 77s chain was on the other side.

I think it's a CA160. The CA95 had the points at the crankshaft and had black cylinders and a silver head. The bike shown has the points running off the cam shaft and the engine is total silver. Sam is spot on about the CA77 chain being on the right. The only other guess would be the CA72, which looks like the CA160, but has a bigger engine. Not sure of the chain side of the CA72.

Submitted for your pleasure is this movie called: She Devils on Wheels; it has two things going for it; very fermented cheese, and some really great examples of some early Hondas...can anyone name them all? http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xemgs6 ... shortfilms

Jet, after watching the first few minutes and listening to the sound track, I just couldn't take any more. :D :D :D :D :D :D The first Honda was a CB450 (444cc) In the UK it was only available in black and was called the Black Bomber. ;)

Chip, the CA72 and CA77 were the same bikes, the 77 just had larger pistons, 305cc.

JBC~ Watching the two chicks near the middle of the lineup trying to kick start their bikes was amusing! To quote Nat X, "I've seen better actin' in tough actin' Tinactin!".

It's good for old Hondas and not much else; Unless, you like old exploit cheese from the 60's-70's.

I think there's a black bomber, an S90, a C70, and either a white CA77 or CA95 at least in it...there may be more. I forgot to mention Alan Hale is either in drag or his twin sister is in this. If you don't know who Alan Hale is; he's the Skipper from Gilligan's Island.
