HONDA NR 750 (1992-1994) Specs, Performance & Photos

In the 1980s, a 750cc endurance motorcycle was manufactured under the NR 750 designation, and in 1992, 300 street versions were produced, powered by a 90-degree v-angle engine. It was the most expensive production motorcycle then, sold for $50,000.

The Honda NR was a V-four motorcycle that started its life in 1979 with the NR 500 Grand Prix racer powered by an engine with oval pistons, allowing eight valves per cylinder, generating more power.

In 1992, the Japanese motorcycle maker launched the Honda NR 750, a sports motorcycle dressed in a full fairing. It was the most technologically advanced and the most expensive bike at the time.

Regarding power, the 1992 Honda NR 750 had its heartbeat set by a 750cc four-stroke V-four liquid-cooled engine that delivered 125 hp at 14,000 rpm and 66 Nm (49 lb-ft) torque at 11,000 rpm.

For suspension, the motorcycle packed a 45 mm inverted telescopic fork on the front with preload, compression, rebound adjustability, and 120 mm wheel travel. A single Pro-Link shock absorber handled the rear end.

As for the braking power, the bike's magnesium wheels were fitted with two 310 mm rotors clamped to four-piston calipers on the front and a 220 mm rotor tied to a dual-piston caliper.

Visually, the motorcycle packed standard features, such as a full fairing, a single headlight unit, a windscreen, a single seat with a hump instead of a passenger seat, an under-seat exhaust system, and five-spoke alloy wheels.
