My dream machine... always wanted one... never got one... Thanks for the peek ;)

That was a rare treat, thanks Spike 🍻

What an amazing machine.
Wish we could still have such brilliant motorcycles being made. Honda was years ahead of everyone else, now, although Honda still offers awesome motorcycles, CT125, CRF300L, MONKEY/MSX... They also brought the CBR600RR back, but machines like the RC45 or RC51 are just on another level.
Hope Honda also brings back a 4 cylinder small displacement engine as Kawasaki did. I want so much to be excited about what Honda and Suzuki have to offer as I was in the early 2000's, but it seems the Chinese are pulling the attention to themselves now. Let's see if in a few years there are still any kove or 450MT rolling. VOR, anyone seen one in the last 15 years?
Thank you for sharing mate.

Would be interesting to put a set of RC45 crankcases next to a set of VFR800 pre VTEC cases and see how similar they are ( or aren't) ?

5th Gen VFR800fi 1998-2000 uses same crankcase casting as RC45 ... RC45's are Magnesium, hence super rare, internals are more exotic material too, but it's basically same motor as a 5th Gen albeit with highly modified cylinder head porting, hence it has more bhp.
