Honda 3RC164
From CycleChaos
The 3RC164 (a strange name, because the RC164 part refers to the four cylinder) is a six cylinder with the same configuration as all the other Hondas. Bore and stroke are 39 x 34.5 mm for a total capacity of 247.3 cc. Ignition is by a transistorized, breaker less system, with 8 mm spark plugs. Lubrication by wet sump. The gearbox is a seven speeder. Power is 54 bhp at 17,000 rpm. A top speed of more than 240 km/h is claimed. Although a six cylinder, the bike is very narrow and the six megaphones are neatly tucked away. It was used in the Monza GP of 1964 and in the beginning of 1965 before the RC165 is finalized.
