I must be getting really old because it looks just like Barbara Stanwyck .

I must be too, because my thought was also Barbara Stanwyck. Guessing the bike is a Honda 305, but I can't really tell. can anyone verify that is a 305 Super Hawk?

Right on the Barbara Stanwyck, a little past her prime.
Don't think it's a 305, as I believe they are little more "humpy" on the tank as is the 450. I know my guess, but will see if others agree.

Sure looks like Babara to me. And re. the bike, if you Google a Honda 305 Superhawk and look at the dozens of images, you will find some pics taken from the same angle with that same engine guard across the front. And if you Google Elvis and Barbara, you'll get that same picture. Old swivel hips Elvis the Pelvis, not much is ever said about his brother Enis.  |

Look closer at the tank, John. Looks a little flatter on top than a 305, could be wrong.

My guess would have been Barbara Stanwyk from "Big Valley" and a 305 Honda. But I don't think I've ever seen a luggage rack like that.

It is Barbara. It is from the movie "Roustabout"

From a Google:
"Elvis Presley recorded a song, "I'm a Roustabout", but it was not used and went unreleased. It was rediscovered in 2003. The motorcycle Elvis Presley rides throughout the movie is a Honda 305 Superhawk."

After having a closer look my self, I'll have to concur with the 305. I was thinking cb160, but the depth of the side cover pretty much rules that out.
Any way, not bad company to be in. All three have given me a lot of entertainment.

She was hot for a long time.
The 305 and a friend of mine pulled a '56 Chevy 1/2 ton pickup 35 miles one night.
We got stopped in every little berg along the way. We werent doing anything wrong, per se, just the cops couldnt believe it and wanted to see it.
The clutch cover stayed hot for a long time too.
