It's a little unusual. Trying to date it and place it. 1976? It is a Hondaline

Yes it is a Hondaline jersey, Don't remember the first year they were available but were sold through 1979. IMO the best Honda jersey, looks and material wise. Bought an NOS one about 8 months ago off of eBay.

Had one just like it in 1978. Sold through Honda dealers in the 70's

Had one in 1974. Sure is cool in the frame on your wall today. Don't remember as much white on mine and don't think that year had Team Honda on the sleeves, but mine was a little kid's size, and my memory might be a bit faded. However I remember my dad and I went to the dealer on a Saturday, they called their other location and had it later that day. Weird how you remember some things but not others. Perforated nylon with little padding on the elbows.

If I can remember, Gary Jones mom actually came up with the design. It's an iconic part of Honda's history

Gary Jones' Mom actually sewed up the first version of those jerseys.

I had my original for 30+ years until some dirtbag broke into my enclosed trailer about 10 years ago and stole my gear bag and 3 bikes.

I miss that jersey more than all of the bikes.
