Honda RS 1000 Works Bike


when Honda took the decision to compete in international endurance racing, they proclaimed: Honda enters. Honda wins! In order to make good on this proclamation, Honda constructed one of the most potent racing motorcycles of all time, the all-conquering Honda RCB. Built on the foundation of the venerable CB 750 first introduced in '69, which is to say, on the 750's lower engine structure and components, the RCB went through continual technical development from '76 to '79 and experimentation of every kind. The RCBs tested the design and engineering of new frames and suspension, wheels (invention of the Comstar) and brakes, fairing styles, and of course, of the engine. This experimentation greatly informed the design of the next generation of Honda four-cylinder roadgoing motorcycles - the CB 750, 900, and 1100 F's and the CB 1100R. Entering 24 races and winning 21, the RCB took the endurance championship. The Honda RS 1000 was the final version of the RCB and utilized a preproduction DOHC engine that would propel new Honda superbikes to new successes on roads and tracks all over the world.
Extremely rare Honda RS 1000 (works bike) from 2005 is the final version of the official RCB series that won several titles in the European Endurance Championship.
The history of the presented bike is fully known, it’s complete and in excellent working order.
Now available in Europe with technical documentation.
