6-Cylinder Legend

Honda's celebrated competition bike, the RC166, originated to win the World course Race Championship in 1966. The bike showcased a 250cc 4-stroke 6-cylinder DOHC 4-valve engine which thumped away an extraordinary 60ps/18,000rpm. Mike Hailwood rode the RC166 and won every 250cc class competition he joined to give Honda their initial Rider and Manufacturer's Championships, which contributed toward company's amazing feat of having the manufacturers' name in lots of five classes from 50cc to 500cc.
