A VERY LIMITED edition, replica model was released by Honda in 2004 to commemorate their early racing history. For $5,499, you got a 156lb lightweight motorcycle with an engine built by Honda’s racing division (HRC), including race-spec cams, valve springs and pistons, and a six-speed gearbox. This 49cc four-stroke, single cylinder engine produces seven bhp—at a heady 13,500 rpm. It’s not road legal, but as a piece of rolling motorcycle sculpture, it’s just perfect.  Color is silver and black (see pictures).  Highlights;

• ·       HRC racing parts include: camshaft, valve springs, low-friction cam chain, crankshaft and lightweight AC generator.
• ·       Six-speed close-ratio transmission.
• ·       Big-bore carburetor and special manifold for optimum power.
• ·       Race-ready engine features oil drain bolt with hole for lockwire to comply with race regulations.
• ·       Lightweight and strong steel frame.
• ·       Weight-saving aluminum fenders front and rear.
• ·       Aluminum oil catch tank.
• ·       Showa front and rear suspension are calibrated for the track to provide optimum handling and stability.
• ·       Front number plate and chain guard as standard equipment.

VALID FLORIDA TITLE !  (title says; “off-highway vehicle-not suitable for highway use”) 

Brand new, zero miles, never serviced.  Just as it came out of the box from Japan to the U.S. dealer.  Been on display in a motorcycle museum for 9 years.  If the buyer wants to ride this bike they assume the responsibility to prep this bike for road use from storage.  No warranty is given or implied.

Not many of these were built or sold in the U.S.  Very rare.

HISTORY: In 1962, Honda revealed its first 50cc-class works racer, the RC110. Like many small-capacity motorcycles of this era, these were elegant machines, with a delicate minimalism. The AC15 – RC110 engine was a rare design for 50 cubic centimeters having a single transverse cylinder and double overhead camshafts.
