Canadian Advertisement.

Some guy on an RC30.

1999 would be cool to have again.

Advertisment.

A Japanese brochure. Comes in a custom cardboard box. Very cool. That is not a 45 it is a 33-1/3 RPM record, just a small one. I have a couple of these.

A paper model from a magazine. The transformation from 2D to 3D makes it tricky to assemble. I scaled it down a bit when I printed mine and regretted it trying to build it. Below is a picture of the one I built. Click on it see how bad I did. Looks like some of the glue has let loose.

Canadian Prices. I know for a fact they sold for more. Well, at least some of them did.

Canadian Brochure. The bike in the picture is not a Canadian bike. It is a pre-production prototype seen in many of Honda's advertisements.

A good one pager.

Moriwaki catalog. The 310 mm cast iron brake rotors are on my project bike. The prices are pretty scary; US$2000 for a dry clutch kit and US$5500 for their cylinder heads in the early 1990's. Gulp. Lotsa Yen for a Zero VX-7 also.

RC30 Information.

Probably the most famous poster of the RC30, with the almighty RVF behind it. The RC30 in the poster is a pre-production prototype so there are a multitude of differences to a real RC30. Can you spot some of the differences? I'll give you a few to get you started:

- Different quantity of windscreen rivets,
- Deeper set headlights,
- No stone screen in lower cowl,
- Location of HONDA decal and stripe on lower cowl.
