Sweet Sports. The rear hubs usually have the date stamped in them. One or two digit month. Two digit year.
Looks like it needs some shift cable work. |

I've never been able to successfully uninstall cottered cranks and still salvage the cranks/bottom bracket.
Power drills and hack saws usually come out. |
Yikes. I've been lucky with extraction thus far, but suck going the other way.

Even the cranks? I haven't had good luck with reinstalling cottered cranks. Gotta get a cotter press goin' on one of these days.

I had one of those in the 70's I wish I still had it

Looks like a 70s vintage LTD or Sports. Better pictures would help. Nice bike for commuting. Check out this thread for more.

Classic & Vintage subforum would be a better place to ask about this bike.
That broken shifter chain assembly is cheap--find a bike shop that's been around for a while and they'll likely have that and correct shifter cables/housing in stock. Don't be afraid to get into the hub if you need to. A bit complicated, but not overly so. Nice cafe racer, BTW. Honda 125? |
The only thing I know about that bike is that it's not single speed or fixed gear.
So, the bike is in the wrong forum but you'll fit right in. |

****, that made me laugh.
