[Product Introduction]
Honda RC166 GP RACERThe 1/12 motorcycle series that started in 1981 has released commercially available cars that were popular in that era and racers that achieved good results. I did. However, there are many famous cars that remain in history even before that. Among them, this time, in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Honda GP participation, we have modeled the Honda RC166 GP racer. The RC166 achieved 10 wins in 10 races in the 1966 World Road Race GP 250cc class, and became the driving force behind Honda's domination of all five classes that year.The RC166 had a displacement of 250cc, but had an extremely sophisticated mechanism with a parallel 6-cylinder DOHC 4-valve system. The machine was recreated using the latest mold technology. The tires are made of solid rubber that realistically reproduces the triangular cross-sectional shape that was characteristic of the 1960s. The long cowling from front to back can be removed even after completion. Rivets are inlet marks
