Can you guess what this is?

This is a barn find (ebay) I picked up a month back for $30.00. After many people on the Kawasaki Riders Forum helping, it has finally been identified !

I could have sworn it was a Kawasaki J1M or G1M (wishful thinking)It is a Daytona (Taiwan)125 Road bike imported into Australia and sold by car racer Bob Jane in 1972. Engine is Kawa c2 120 copy. (thanks ZED900, MURN & Facthunt for the detective work).
Think I'll do some 'practice' restoration on it, Let the kids have a ride, then stick it back on eBay.

    My first motorcycle was one of these I bought it second hand off a friend back when I was 12 years old that would’ve been 1976, I stripped all the excess off it bogged and smooth the tank and re-sprayed the whole bike black frame yellow tank and guards my mother never let me ride it so I snuck out on it a couple of times I remember pieces falling off it
