[[Honda|Honda's]] 'New Road' (NR) [[V4|V-four]] [[motorcycle]] engine series started in 1979 with a [[NR500|500cc]] [[Grand Prix motorcycle racing|Grand Prix]] racer that used oval pistons. The oval [[piston]] allowed for eight [[4-stroke cycle engine valves|valves]] per [[Cylinder (engine)|cylinder]] which generated more power due to the increased air / fuel mixture throughput and compression. In 1992 Honda produced around 300 street versions of a 750cc model, the NR (often mistakenly referred to as the NR750), with a 90-degree V angle, the bike became the most expensive production bike at the time when it was selling for $50,000 and with the rarity, they nowadays rarely change hands. | |||
