This
image speaks for itself.
The very essence of the machine.
This machine is, more than anything, a vessel to convey that marvelous
engine.
The bike is pretty standard Honda, but the engine is unlike anything
else.
A thoroughly
modern design it utilizes
double-overhead cams with
four valves per cylinder.
It has a
big bore over square cylinder design which revs freely and is reliable.
Six individual Constant Vacuum type carburetors provide fuel mixture.
This bike has an after market SuperTrapp
6 into 2 stainless steel exhaust system.
Factory power ratings for1979
model are 105 HP at 9000 RPM (crankshaft) and
61.5 foot-pounds of torque
at 8000.
This makes for a very spirited ride.
And, being an in-line six it
offers the smoothness of an engine design
that is in perfect primary balance. |
