Good to hear that your an experienced rider. The clutch sounds like it is not releasing. Very common on these old wet clutch bikes that have not been running in a while. Once you get the bike, change the oil (30 wt) then when you get it running, try the clutch again. The problem could be an adjustment or sticky clutch plates. The problem may go away when you warm up the engine with fresh oil in it.

Although, if the clutch plates are glued together with old oil, removing the engine side cover and cleaning or replacing the friction discs is a fairly easy, but sloppy job.

Welcome to the forum. You will find almost every answer you will ever need. Check out the Honda 150 Restoration Thread. The CA160 is nearly the exact bike as the CA95 with the exception of the engine, mufflers and wiring.
