If you’ve ever fancied owning a rac♚e-winning superbi🙈ke, this could be your chance, with an ex-V&M Racing Honda RVF750R RC45 up for sale.

At £64,995, it’s hard to call it ‘cheap’, but for an ex-racer – and ex-race winner at that – it’s not a bad price have pu🦄t it up for.

This particular model was first raced in 1995, a year in which it finished third in the 🅰Senior TT in the hands of Steve Ward and in which Terry Rymer took it 💮to victory in a British Championship race at Brands Hatch.

Its final year of racing came in 19✨97, when, in the hands of Michael Rutter, it finished second in the Formula 1 TT and took a victory a𓂃t the North West 200.

The point is, it’s a bike with pedigree, as you 🥀might expect of something to come from the V&F team of Jack Valentine and Steve Mellor, even 𒊎if they were perhaps better known for their tuning prowess of 600cc Supersport-spec engines.

As for the RVF750R RC45, it was the successor to the famous VFR750R RC30, winner of the first two 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:World Superbike Championships with Fred Merkel in 1988 and 1989.

The RC45 itself took the title in 1997 thanks to John Kocinski, a title which would prove to be the last for a 750cc four-cylinder bike in the series, as two tℱitles for the 1,000cc Ducati came in 1998 and 1999, followed up by another Honda title – but this time with Colin Edwards aboard the 1,000cc V-twin Honda VTR1000 SP.
