Sometime in the middle sixties, I had a recording of the Honda 250 six ( on a record, not a tape!) by some obscure european label that had a bunch of gp bikes of the time. It is the most incredible racing engine I have ever heard, except for that 1.5 litre engine that was in Honda's mid sixties gp car that Ritchey Ginther won the Mexican grand prix with.

I believe that at least one of the Honda sixes is (are?) in private hands and are run for exhibition in some vintage events. Does anybody know anything about where they are today?



I seem to remember reading about them somewhere. The motojournilist reporting the event was impressed that the owner would actually run the bike!
