Monkey bikes stole the show - more than 20.

Launched in 1992, the madly-expensive Honda NR750, with its oval-piston, fuel-injected, eight valve per cylinder V4, which redlined at 15,000rpm, is a superbike like no other. The bike, which ‘inspired’ Massimo Tamburini’s styling for the Ducati 916, made extensive use of carbonfibre and was fitted with exotica like a single-sided swingarm, digital instrumentation (very flash for 1992…) and projector type headlamps.

Its forsale if you have a spare 30 grand.. :o
