This 50cc race engine at left is a twin cylinder - Honda also developed
a 50 3 cylinder to compete with a rumoured 3 cyl 2 stroke but it,
the tiny Honda 4 stroke was made but never sat in a race bike. The
h.p figure for the 50 twin was 16hp 2 21,500 rpm,which meant a Pme
of 16 kg/cm2, the highest developed 4 stroke ever. The 3 cylinder
50 would have developed 18hp at 25,000 rpm according to Joep Kortekaas.
Pictures do exist of the Honda 3 cyl 50.

| rare race kitted CB92R.the new bike was
ordered (CB92) and fitted with the factory R kit. The follow up model
was the factory race model CR93. My friend Scotty Van Lewen owns this
bike and is near finishing its restoration. I believe its a 1963 model.
Scott lives in the U.S, and bought this bike off his cousin in 1966,
when his cousin replaced it with a CR93. It sat in his attic till
recently when he mailed me for tech help. I got him into action to
restore this priceless gem. |
