I remember those little Hondas back in the day.
1st Honda cars imported I think.
I recall they came with a 2 cylinder 600cc engine that looked similar to the Honda 350 motor.
I'm even thinking they were air cooled.
I'm guessing someone has been trying an engine swap on that craiglist unit.

I wonder if they use the Goldwing transmission or if bypassed to an automotive transmission?
Whatever I suggest here should be given ample time for a moderator to delicately correct. I apologize in advance.

I had an earlier model when in Japan in 1967-70 It was a 1966 S600 coupe and it redlined around 14000 rpm. I only owned for maybe a month and sold it. It was a screamer.
