Hard to deny the ingenuity of the concept. Under 5000km. At least this example has not been relegated solely to the display stand. I was with some non-riding friends, and they were astounded at the technology. It’s a beautiful machine, but 76hp (77PS, 58kW)? Truth’s reply is absolutely correct. Trust me, most everyone [including me] reading this would jump at the chance to take a spin on one, so thanks for chiming in! The 750 street bike made about 125 HP at 14,000 RPM. Honda perfected mass reduction and coupled it with mass centralization, all rolling with a 16in front wheel. Please email me at dan@motoringblogs.com, © 2020 All Rights Reserved. The fairing is identifiably FireBlade, but surprisingly trim and fabricated chiefly of carbon fiber. At this years outdoor European Motorcycle Show at the Larz Anderson Museum of Transportation (Brookline, MA), there was 1 on display inside. Amazing bike Steve and the fact that you put miles on it, That’s even better! I don’t get al the pissing, moaning and picking of nits. I think it mostly refers to the 500cc GP bikes which spent a few years in development and just an occasional start before Honda finally re-joined the two-stroke formation… .
Good luck with the sale! Honda does this stuff just because they can, and that makes it right and good and divine! he seems to be selling off bikes lately……. New tires and just tuned. Loris Capirossi set the flying mile, kilometre and 10km record on a lightweight NR at the Nardo ring, but that's about the only record the NR can lay claim to. So it just may be possible that they were learning how to do that process on an industrial scale for future applications. RC45, you say the race version was “unstoppable”? Featured Listing – 1982 Honda CB450T with 1,682 Miles ! 1992 Honda NR 750 presented as Lot F155 at Las Vegas, NV.
Like I said: lazy. No amount of bellyaching is going to alter history. The Grand Prix bike was an abject failure and the endurance racer won a single race. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); A peculiar bespoke-priced showpiece from the leading volume manufacturer, the Honda RC40 met at the crossroads of rule-bending engine development, enterprise-level manufacturing skill, and large-team design and engineering. The bike was originally sold in Austria and is the highest performance version of the NR750. The seller states on the ebay listing that this is a 1979 motorcycle. But it ran how many races?
Whoever is lucky and wealthy enough to ride one of these to a bike night or WSBK race weekend can be sure he’s the only cat in town that has got oval shaped piston rings that brought him there. I’d still love to have one, but every time I think about the factory strangulation of the J-spec NRs it makes me cry…. To biking and non biking types alike, it always draws attention and defies its 27 years. This is hush hush stuff, don’t let the cat out of the bag here: OVAL WHEELS!!! The Honda NR (New Racing) is a v-four motorcycle engine series started by Honda in 1979 with the 500cc NR500 Grand Prix racer that used oval pistons. The pure nerdiness of this bike is hard to beat. If you just like quirky engineering, great, buy what you like and be happy, but don’t insist that those of us who care more about performance than novelty are bellyachers and nit pickers. Of about 700 produced, zero were “officially” imported to the U.S. Honda attempted to recoup the ocean of yen it took to develop the NR racing program and sold a batch of these at a then (and now) astronomical sticker of $50,000. Yes, if FIM/etc hadn’t added the “pistons have to be round” rule the oval Hondas would have won a bunch of races, and no one else could have made one because Honda wisely patented the idea.

Its called nanotechnology now and very soon doctors will be injecting little bulldozers and dump trucks into fat asses to hog out the arterial buildup, etc, without the need of invasive surgery.
