Honda Six
« on: March 30, 2006, 06:13:45 PM »
There was some discussion here a while ago about Hondas 250 six cylinder race bikes of the sixties. Well you might want to check out the April edition of MotorCyclist. A very good article on the RC174 297cc/six and the man who has attempted duplicating Hondas engineering feats. Extremely interesting read. 17,000 rpm and 219bhp/litre.

Motorcycle pornography.  8)

Kevin Cameron did a short write-up on the bike in his "Performance Handbook". What an amazing exercise in the limits of possibility.
