The Honda Collection Hall at Motegi Circuit fired up their '98 VFR. Translated from the video description:

We are doing "dynamic preservation" keeping the history of products and racing machines ready for running, and as part of that, we are carrying out a running confirmation test that runs the machine regularly.

I have about 7,250 on mine.  Never been ridden the rain.  I do much the same - change fluids, start it - keep it in ready to ride condition (which it gets every so often).

I've been scrolling through a bunch the past couple days, and while I love a 5th Gen, they have an NR250! Not like hey look there's an NR250, but OMG they built an NR250 that is identical to an NR500! Thirty freakin two valve 250cc V4 oval piston machine!

Hmmmm... never heard of an NR250 V4. They did experiment with a V-twin (still 16 valves) and turboed IIRC.

That video says it’s a NR750, and doesn’t seem to mention any 250 version.

My mistake, I knew it seemed too good to be true! I guess my eyes were a little blurred by the wine...LOL

 

But I found the car section. 4 Wheel steering Prelude!

Haha, that happens to the best of us. 

 

Fun fact, I’ve driven a 4WS Prelude in red when it was new.

Could you feel the difference with four-wheel steering? I could imagine it could feel like oversteer.

I wasn’t able to flog it, but the turning radius was ridiculous. It was neato. Iirc first 4WS car model n USA.
