ツインリンクもてぎの南コースで、ホンダコレクションホールが収蔵する車両の走行テストが行なわれました。
今回は、Honda RC181 [1967]の走行テストシーンをご覧ください。
ライダーは宮城光さんです。
ホンダはこの1967モデルで、当時世界選手権に組み入れられていたマン島TTレースで、250cc、350cc、500ccの三冠を達成したことはあまりにも有名です。

「RC181に乗る時はいつも憂鬱だった」っと語っていたマイクヘイルウッドの言葉が忘れられませんね、フロントフォーク周りの強度不足に悩んでいた様です。当時の写真にブレーキングの際のフロントフォークがブレている所が映っているのが有りました。しかし、２００Km／H以上の速度からの減速は怖かったでしょうね、
今、このサウンドが聞けるとは、感謝です。
Back in the 60's when this 500cc Honda was racing, everyone else had to wear earplugs as they were most likely behind it. Mike Hailwood raced it to its best successes even though the handling was poor partly due to big power, flexing frames and skinny tires. The 297cc 6 cyl Honda (raced in the 350 class) was the favorite of Hailwoods works rides and was the class of the field anywhere until Honda pulled out of GP racing at the end of 1967.
That sound.....THAT SOUND!!!! This must be the best souding motorcycle I've ever heard. Love it!
Don't Forget thé 500 MV si tu Ago .....
and so it would seem
1, 2, 3, 4, GO! GO! GO!
Thank you-arigato- for this wonderful document. It is very special to hear this machine, as it is a very rare experience to hear one of the precious few genuine RC181 engines singing!
The greatest and most visually and sonically beautiful GP bikes were always red and silver...
It's the amount of air displaced by the exhaust pressure. I've stood a way back behind these machines and you can feel the air waves. Truly amazing.
この動画を他でも見ましたが、画質が良いですね。
有難うございます。
This is what you call a BRUTAL sound
Honda 6cyl 250 was even more spectacular !
The best motorcycle sound I ever heard my entire life
You should hear the Honda 6 cylinder 250 rc 166. Look it up on RUclips.
@@martinhambleton5076 these GP motorcycles are the same, they're from the 60s RC series.
Hailwood described this bike as "a rocketship that doesn't really handle very well but makes for it in the straights".
Thank you for letting me hear it again. The only other time was as a 16 year old, half way down Bray Hill, when I saw Mike Hailwood win the senior at the Diamond jubilee. I could pick that sound out from any other motorcycle.
2:20 "Whatever you do don't crash"
Racer: "OK"
Got to be the best looking GP bike ever built, Swiss Watch comes to mind when describing it.
Motorbikes have never looked or sounde better than those Honda's, absolutely sublime!
That is not noise,
THAT IS SOUND!
Awesome Bike!!!
Thanks for sharing this vid!
今こそ、ホンダがこの世にこの様なバイクを出すべきだ、当然模倣でなく進化したCRをホンダスピリットを亡き宗一郎も微笑むだろう、ホンダは独自精神が基本どこにも有る様な企業にならないで欲しい、ホンダにしか作れない製品を作って頂きたい。
1:09 I thought that was the sound of the bike and later I felt stupid and amazed
jigrodrigues and
Great sounding at 1:09!
Indeed.
Honda RC181 - Hailwood / Redman - a race winning combination bar none !!
Filmed at the Twin Ring Motegi site -a brilliant place to visit! Nothing on earth sounds as good as a Honda on full bore! ^_~
I recall it was rated at 110hp back in the day. Difficult handling to manage at times but what a performer overall.
走る芸術作品ですネ~♪
機械的機能美は、このバイクのことを言うといっても納得できます。
sound from the past. and it's freaking awesome!
seen all of them in action at the TT with mike up and in the paddock Monday the 250 six Wednesday the 350 six Friday the mother ship what a sound !!
Great engine sound.
Sweet music to my ears on. This over peaceful and boaring sunday morning lol
Cette 250 cc c'est de l'horlogerie de haute qualité : Félicitations à Honda pour cette machine d'usine : très belle vidéo merci pour l'avoir mise en ligne !
I love those old Honda gas tanks I wish Honda would produce a modern motorcycle with that old racer gas tank shape I will buy it

gio2812872 is
Saw this and the 297 (350) 6cylinder many times, unforgettable sound
52年前！？なんちゅうレスポンスなんや。吹け上がりもすげえな！
I totally agree. Soichiro-San was a motorcycle genius, what a beautiful bike and wonderful noise!
地鳴りのような轟音。走る芸術品
I was lucky to hjave been at the 50th anniversary event at Suzuka recently. I had access to the pits, control tower etc. A fabulous weekend! ^_~
I had the chance to see one of these RC's live in a race.....unbelievable sound :O
Grand-Pappy of the DOHC-four Honda series, like my "CB900K0 Bol Bomber" - what hwe've got here is 500cc's in four cylinders, which I'd waaay rather have than only 250cc's in a six-cylinder. It's soooo much more of a sexy bike. A toss up, where I might be tempted by a CR750, or the '76 RCB with 480A 750cc engine, or the CB1100R, or my "Bol Bomber" itself for that matter - and yet EVEN SO - This is my favourite of ALL the Honda RC series - quite possibly my favourite BIKE of all time, meaning next to my daughter it's the most beautiful sight on the face of this Earth. I suppose I could see sticking a "Faux-Leading-Shoe" fake drum hub on one of these other bigger models, in fact I'm planning to do just that with my current build. However none of those other models, even with wire-spoke rims and the same or similar bodywork, could look as BEAUTIFUL as the RC-181 - it's when you get the thing NEKKID that it truly turns my crank. Just gorgeous castings, and all of those fins. YUMMY.
Honda made some of the best sounding bikes, take a listen to the Rc166 @ 20k rpm 6 cylinder 😀
How about the son.. Cbx1000
Amazing Honda... The power of dreams!!!!
Forgot to add one thing in my last post. Needless to say but none of these 60's GP Racers produced by Honda would even make it past Tech Inspection with today's sound decibel rule. These Bikes with their Full Open Megaphone Exhaust would probably be past the 130 decibel mark at almost idle. This was the Real Days of GP Racing when basically no restrictions were put on Noise Emitted....
yes
Compared to what has been learned and in view today, the engine is a good bit rearward from the designs now. And, yes, the skinny tires could really have fragile traction. I used to race lightweights and you even needed to be careful of transition from either steering lock as you could dump it while almost upright!!
The FiM cracked down on db's in the mid '70s...one reason MV Agusta retired from the sport
Every bit as angry and ferocious as I remember it all those years ago on the race track. The music of the devil himself - and just as alluring.
This is just one bike, when you have a full grid take off it's unbelievable.
I've commented on this vid before I believe this is one of 3 that HRC own got to be worth a fortune actually detuned from 125 bhp to 115 power plant was miles ahead of the frame brakes and tyres but what a tune MTB got out of it!
You meet the nicest people on a Honda....
one of the best sounds i've ever heard...
OMG Beautiful thank you all at WMT.
the interesting thing here is that this engine is 500 ccm and it's 4 cylinders inline 4 stroke and it has really nice sound
Better than any car ever made.
美しい！！
AMAZING SOUND!
Beautiful!
belle video !!!
superbe moto !!!
Lol that mechanic trying to order a pizza with that racket.. Legend.
work of art......................
カッコいいなぁ
yuta yuta Umm max 419hp weight 61kg 9-speed transmission top speed 316 kmh rev limiter 24000
WTF ... Did you hear the engine ??? AWESOME !!!
kraka mano.. isso era assim mesmo antigamente? Os caras ficavam surdos rapidinho não? rsrsrs
Qtas cc tem essa parada?
Ow Julio.. é viagem minha ou a aceleração dela é ao contrário? Repare no momento em que o piloto sobe nela... o mecânico tá acelerando pra frente e não pra tras.. é isso mesmo ou tô viajando? rsrrs
Sao muitas motos, cada uma delas com uma cilindrada diferente ..rs.. o mecanico está acelerando pra tras, normal ..rs... ilusão de ótica ...rs..
Essa primeira é 500 cc
Imagine this goes on public street !
Honda started with a motorcycle with an auxiliary engine on a bicycle 20 years ago.
im pretty sure he is the one who tests all the bikes an the race cars to. :) lucky guy
The 6 cylinder 250 sounded even better.
now thats a race bike! no silencer or baffle straight pipe. back before you had to meet certain DB rating.
Wow, go listen to a 1.5L V8 F1 engine from the early Sixties, sounds very much similar! What a beatiful sound...
Absolutely marvellous!
Les doubles cammes, sont juste 🤩✔️
wonderful!
What a nice sound!!!!
These bikes are visceral and seem alive, Godzilla monster inspired noise.
Pork chop "flywheels" so small that if you let the revs drop too low the engine stalls...higher RPM range than any other contemporary competitor...Hailwood said you could ride the MV down to the corner like a street bike, but even on the 500 Honda he had to slip the clutch on slow corners....Too bad we Americans never got a chance to see this beast. OK, we should have been Karnak and psychically known there's only ever be ONE Canadian GP, right.
well, i'm spent. awesome stuff.
This rider is Mr. Hikaru Miyagi.
He used to be a works rider with HRC.
HONDA GLORY!!!👍😊.
That sounds like a proper motorcycle!
NICE HONDA SOUND!!
Perfection!
Une merveille !
that sound! I want my CBR1000RR to sound like that.
i guess these were very early motoGP factory bikes.
I would ride this bike at night just to piss my neighbour off if i had one. Really great sound and looks
Great comment, goes for me too mate
Sweet machine
This bike is in very good tune, not a backfire pop heard. To hear these old bikes live on the racetrack in full song lifts the hair on the back of your neck, 66 season dominated by 2 bikes, the RC181 and the MV. Only spoiler was a Jawa taking a win in East Germany. The following year only the two bikes, both finished equally with 5 race wins each and on equal points. The decider was put on 2nd placing which the MV had 3 over the Hondas' 2. Ago was the champion and Hailwood the runner up although Hailwood claimed the 250 and 350 championships for 1967. My advice is not to look at RUclips but get your ass out to Historic Race meetings. These old bikes are still competing and the plus is that the public can move freely around the pit areas.
Another good bike RC166 250/6 ruclips.net/video/eaRop_ZMwo0/видео.html
the biggest drum brake ive ever see
Actually, that brake is 230 mm, compared to the 250 mm brakes of the Yamaha two-strokes and the Fontana rem. I know because I have one of those Honda brakes in my classic Honda racer.
ЗВУК ШИКАРЕН!!!! ЛУЧШЕЕ ЧТО Я СЛЫШАЛ!!!
where can i buy engines, replicas or just engine plans for this? i want to put that in my RC390.
k
ill give you 10 bucks
they reckoned that Reynolds built Mike a frame for it cos it was that bad! even then it was a pig, my mate was at Parliament square on the Island and he said it was trying to tie itself into knots! not surprising when the word got out it was knocking out around 115 bhp!! what a fantastic noise it made. saw John Cooper ride it at Oulton park! he poodled round at the back of the pack!! can't blame him really.
Reynolds most definitely did build a frame for it......how do I know? Because I was the apprentice with Ken Sprayson (the designer) at the time and I personally fashioned and hand filed every tube joint, whilst Jack Murray (the exceptionally skilled SIFBronze welder) brazed it all together in the Welded Assembly Department in Tyseley, Birmingham. George ?? in the tube manipulation department did all the tube bending and rolling.This was in October 1967. I met with Mike Hailwood the day the bike was delivered to the works car park and helped to roll the bike out of the van and side saddled it down the slope to the workshop area further down the factory road....what a great experience for a 19 year old!
On road race circuits like the Isle of Man, these things could hang with the 750's.
wouahou!!! what a sound!
What are the technical values and Data of this wonderfull motorcycle ??
Amazing i suspect,
Ad van der Sanden
Ad, buy my book: Honda's Four-Stroke Race History 1954 ~ 1981, and all will be revealed!
1:20 got my attention real damn quick!
The RC 181 was Honda's 500cc 4 cylinder Grand Prix Race bike. It was as equally as Fast or Faster than the inline 4 cylinder MV Agusta that Giacamo Agostini Rode back then. But the Talent of Agostini usually prevailed even or HP advantage. Hailwood was Winning on the RC166 250cc 6cylinder that year and it seem to even over shadow the 181 GP Bike simply because of being a 6 cylinder 250cc Machine. Honda also built a 125cc Machine that had 5 Cylinders (RC 149) but was never campaigned as they pulled out of GP Racing for a number of years but came back later with 2 Stroke Racers(i.e. NSR 250 & 500 Honda from the beginning of the 1960's built some of the most exotic and Fastest Roadracers on the Planet....
steve matz Honda won the 125cc manufacturers championship with the five cylinder bike in 1966 Luigi Taveri & Ralph Bryans rode them I saw Bryans race one at Mallory Park in 1967.
Thanks John R....I remember seeing one of those 5 cylinder RC149's at Daytona one year as a Vintage Display Bike among others. That thing seemed as loud or louder than the 250 six. I remember Luigi Taveri in the 60's because we were a Ducati Dealer back then as he was racing for them for awhile. Neat Racing back in the Day ...
steve matz Yes Steve the five sounded like a bellow from hell as it was warmed up in the paddock at Mallory Park, I was lucky enough to see all the Japanese exotica in the 1960s ... the sights, sounds & smell of Castrol R will live with me for ever.
John R and me, I remember Mike on the 297cc six battling with Ago on the 500cc MV 3 around Mallory
Post TT race 1967 I think
Oh those were the days ... Fantastic at Mallory packed out with spectators.
Ago rode a three cylinder MV, not a four against Hailwood. And it was not Ago's talent (Which of course he had in abundance) but the bad luck of Hailwood - the big Honda was not as reliable as the smaller versions.
can you provide script or caption of what the rider commented in the video?
In Japanese is ok, I can translate later. Only listening is too difficult for me.
imagine racing that thing!!
WOW!W SOICHIRO HONDA!
i like to see M Marques try one and make a chrono with
wow, now that you say that , that does sound pretty scary ! =X so i guess i wont be looking to buy one any more !
magnifique
At first i thought the starter motor was the motorcycle engine, then the bike started.
._____.
silencer? what is silencer?
普通のチェックのシャツ着てるかと思ったら、革のつなぎなのね。そんなわけないか笑
Kind of remind me my CB400F SS... huge noise, slow speed ^^
I had a 75 cb-400f n it didn't sound any where close to that n that was even with my open 4 into 1 Kerker pipe
If I had one I would crank it up every sunday morning just to piss a specific neighbor off to no end (]8^ )
MAGIC.
I thought what ??it sounds like a lawn mower then ,,,bammm it started wow what a sound
Let motoGP get back to these bikes. Would be much more fun.
