When shifting into reverse or drive, there's a clunking noice coming
from the drive-shaft. Do Honda's have u-joints or is it called
something else?

They have "CV" joints at each front wheel. They usually do not make a CLUNK
noise when putting it into gear even when they are going bad. You will
usually hear them making noise when you are going around a turn. If you have
a clunk, you probably have a broken motor or transmission mount. I'd check
there first.
