Built by James Mott of Hand Made Racers in Australia, this is a Honda VFR750F (RC36) that has been extensively modified to become a tribute/celebration of the legendary Honda RC45.
James took this bike to the next level by also adding some touches to recall Mick Doohan’s #11 RC45 Suzuka 8 Hours endurance race bike.
Other modifications include:
Tyga bodywork with endurance upper fairing.
The wheels have been painted or powdercoated gold.
Front end from a Honda CBR929RR.
Hyperpro shock with remote preload adjuster.
Aftermarket dash.
OKI tribute livery.
Aftermarket turn signals.
Tyga exhaust.
“It was built for fun, it’s not a replica, it’s a lookalike. I like to call them ‘celebration’ bikes – comfortable and quick enough for fun.”
Manufactured in October of 1994, this example is VIN: JH2RC36U5SM500166.
The odometer shows 1,151 kilometers ( miles), which represents distance covered since the build. Total mileage is not known.
