    These were truly 'terror in a teacup'! The amount of technology that went into these tiny twin cylinder twin-cam 4 strokes was astronomical for the time they were produced. The fact that they actually stayed together for a complete race was even more impressive! Making around 16hp @ 21,000 rpm these little bikes would do close to 110 mph. in the straights.😮

    In 1967, motorcycle GP came to Canada, it was Canada's Centennial year. The race was held at Mosport and I was able to wander into the Honda pits during practice. There was the 50cc twin being warmed up by a mechanic. I walked over and stood behind the little Honda, I could clearly see the tachometer and watched the mechanic methodically blip the throttle to 19,000 rpm. Hailwood and Agostini were also competing. I got to witness a lot of motorcycle legends that day.

    That little engine used to do 20,000 rpm when racing, and ended up with a 14 speed gearbox to keep it on song. In those days Honda refused to "go two stroke), and developed the little twin. It had four-valve heads too! They used the same cylinder configuration on their five cylinder 125cc bike. Astounding technology for those times, and I remember them well at race circuits all over the placer, not least the Isle of Man where the little fifty lapped at incredible speed (around 80mph if my memory serves).... Halycon days in the development of the wonderful engines that we now take for granted on our road bikes..... :-)

    Walter Tacey I guess it's not quite the same. Those pioneering days are gone, but what was learned then we now get to enjoy every day on the roads. I have a 25 year old Honda CBR600, and such a machine was undreamed of back in the 60s and 70s. The latest versions of it are really 'hard edged' and not for old girls like me these days, but the milder sports-tourers we ride now would have acquitted themselves well at the "Island" back then, and the supersports machines of today would leave those old bikes for dead.. I still get goosebumps, though, when I see a nice Vincent, Norton, Triumph or BSA from that era. The designs were, by 21st century standards, crude, but those bikes had a "je ne sais quoi" that is often lacking in modern iron. Still, it's nice to have a bike that starts at the press of a button, doesn't stop when it rains, holds the road like a limpet, stops on a dime, uses little gas and goes like a rat up a drainpipe! I was off bikes for some 20-odd years from the late 70's, and when I got back on one (a 400 Katana) the advances in tyres, brakes and handling were quite startling, not to mention the sheer grunt of that little 400cc motor. I love technology! xo

Irimajiri also made the RC147 5 cylinder 125cc, RC166 250cc six cylinder, 1.5Litre V12 RA271 Formula car, Oval pistpn NR500, and the CBX1000 six cylinder bike.

    The RC116 for 1966 was the result of developmental work on the RC115 a year earlier. It was an inline Twin with a 33mm Bore and 29mm stroke. 32mm's is equal to 1"-1/4" inch, so add another .040 thousandth and you have your cylinder bore. It had 4 valve per cylinder and was rated at 16bhp @ 20,500rpm although knowledable insiders say the HP was closer to 20bhp ( Honda never gives true HP numbers) Much like other Honda small CC RRers it relied on high RPM and with the narrow powerband even with redline being over 20,000 rpms, it incorporated a 9 speed gearbox. When you consider Honda's little Street Sport 50cc motorcycle designated C110 and producing 5bhp. This would be a rocket in comparison. as you can see by the Video Demo; if you hadn't been told it was only a 50cc motorcycle, you more than likely wouldn't have believed it. The RC116 won 3 out of 6 FIM Races in 66 and grabbed the Mfgers title. Another little RRer marvel from Honda Racing ...

    When Ralph Bryan's was riding it at the IOM the rev limit was about 17 thou, when he finished the race the mechanics asked him what he was revving it to as they knew by the sound of it that it wasn't 17, he said 21 thousand odd. He told them that was what he had to do to keep up with the Suzukis so they altered the rev limit then to suit !

    This bike's engine had the highest specific output (bhp per litre) ever recorded for any naturally aspirated (not turbo or supercharged) four-stroke engine. Today's MotoGP and F1 units don't even get close. Honda were working on a 3-cylinder 50cc race motor when the decision was taken to drop out of the 50cc GP class. The 2-strokes won in the end but Honda held them off for a very long time.

    These little monsters were anything but fun to ride, as a narrow power band and minimal contact patch meant you had to keep "rowing" from gear to gear, continuously, to stay "on the boil". Add in the bumpy, often slick road courses of the era and you can see why Hugh Anderson and the other 50cc class riders were complaining. Note the bicycle-type rim brakes as well. Rotsaruck with stopping power on those. The FIM instituted a minimum 50kg weight limit for riders, forcing some of the tiny Japanese guys to carry a lead weight belt to qualify. The 125s were marginally better; when I rode Redman's ex-250 four-cylinder at Suzuka in 1968 I found it very steady and forgiving (except for the tires, which along with suspension were far behind the rest of the engineering). You can hear these tiny singles and twins at the IoM TT on old recordings from miles away, a jumpy nervous scream as they bounced from bump to bump. Honda even built a 3cyl 50 prototype, which they smuggled into Suzuka in the back seat of a taxi to evade motorcycle journalists. Never raced it though..
