Hoping to defend their 1980 makers title, the Honda team competed in the 1981 Endurance
World Championships with the RS1000. Fitted with an air-cooled 4-cylinder DOHC 999cc
engine capable of 150hp, the RS1000 featured all the latest Honda technology that had been
fine-tuned during their domination of endurance racing in the late 70s. A unique aspect of the
1981 bike was specially designed cowling that had been slightly enlarged to reduce rider
fatigue during the grueling races. Although unsuccessful in defending their 1980 title, the
Honda team was able to take out both the prestigious Suzuka 8-Hour Endurance Race and
the Bol dOr 24 hour race. - Features all high-quality detailing of the original kit.
