Honda Welcome Plazais hosting an event for the Suzuka 8 Hours. The VTR1000SPW is on display there, so if you’re interested, this is a great opportunity to check it out.
The aura of a real race bike is truly incredible (*´ω`*)
The RVF750 is displayed right next to it, so I can’t get a full shot
Space constraints mean there’s only so much we can do. It would be nice if they could set it up so you could walk all the way around the bike.
I happened to have business in Aoyama yesterday, so I stopped by the Welcome Plaza and was surprised to see it on display. Every year I forget, but I should really check before and after the 8 Hours race
I was surprised at how compact the front end is (*´ω`*)
The design is very simple and sleek. The screen is positioned slightly higher, probably because it’s a durability-spec setup.
I’m really here to look at the parts more than the bike itself.
Anyway, the aura of a real race bike is truly incredible. I personally love bikes from the era when calipers had axial mounts.
Weekends get incredibly crowded, so if you visit on a weekday you can take your time looking around. Both bikes and cars have parking available, so feel free to stop by!
