Agreed! A while ago I posted this thread, http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=50864 , which leads to Honda's official website where they've recorded a whole bunch of their most famous bikes and cars. A good chunk of the RCxxx 1960s GP bikes are on there. I think the RC166 is the best of the bunch... never heard such a howl.

But considering your well documented history of being an idiot and a general squid, your opinion counts for about five eights of feck all. You clearly know very little about the history of the Japanese motorcycle, quite possibly a good match for your riding ability. Quit yer dribbling and HTFU.

Much like all the others, I also like the sound of the RC166 and actually know abit of its documented history (have a small library of motorcycle books). Would be a blast to ride and from what I remember, in its day it did very well in it's class.
