In regards to the color, the October 1960 issue of Cycle had a wonderful comprehensive Road Test (#111) of the CA95. "Attractively painted in a color that we can as nearly as possible describe as 'passionate pink', the Honda looks and performs like no other lightweight of that capacity we have ever ridden."

And they went on to say "The more we rode our test Honda, the more we liked it. It performs exceptionally well for its size and is well designed and put together" And I'd add to that the same applies 55 years later!
Got the horn apart and appreciate the tip. The color is definitely "passionate" and pink as well

Here are pics of my horn and tank finished!
