Finally found one!

Congratulations!
They were awesome things for their time. Electric start, probably as fast as most British 350s, and with a front brake (an 8" 2LS on a 125
) that would be an upgrade for the contemporary Bonneville.
Of course, at the time, it looked odd (1950s German styling interpreted by the Japanese), it was "only" a 125, real motorcyclists could use a kickstart, and it couldn't possibly last with a 10,000+ rpm red line.
