I love these, but 2000 made? It's limited production, but there are more limited runs out there, and cheaper too.
Ugg, would not give it garage space ! Bodywork doe not fit the engine style, and the rear wheel single-sided thingy looks all wrong ( probably will get banned now !)
Have to say I'm with Dave on this one, each to their own, but it does nothing for me. I wouldn't give it house room either
I think they're beautiful, swore I'd get one after seeing the prototype but single seat and empty wallet made me bottle out. The chopper sized petrol tank is a joke though (75miles range) and the forks are non adjustable. This ones in good nick but way overpriced imho, £9-10k is the max I've seen them sell for. check out his other bikes!
I love it. And at some point I will own one. But how I get it past swmbo and into the garage has to be resolved first. :smile:
Do you mean the Honda? I believe it had oval pistons but I'm sure there is someone on here with far more knowledge.
It had oval pistons. (Well, I think they were oblong with rounded ends). It also had (I believe) a couple of conrods per cylinder. I think the idea was a sort of V8 in a V4 thing. Hideously expensive when it came out, so unsurprisingly ridiculously expensive now. There never was any great point to it in terms of power or handling - it wasn't raced, as I recall and the RC30 was around to win plenty of things anyway. I think it was more a tour de force by the engineers for their own amusement and the greater glory of Honda.
