Tamiya 14130 Repsol Honda RC213V '14

The Honda RC213V is a Japanese racing motorcycle that is manufactured by the Honda subsidiary Honda Racing Corporation and is part of a long line of RC motorcycles. The RC213V was first introduced to the public in 2011, and production started at the same time and is still ongoing.

The RC213V model was developed and put into production to replace the successful RC212V motorcycle and in connection with the need to adapt to the new 500 / MotoGP racing regulations in force since 2012. The main difference between the two models was the engine used - the Honda RC213V used an engine with a larger displacement (1000 cm3 compared to 800 cm3), generating significantly greater maximum power (over 230 HP versus 207-208 HP). Composites and carbon fibers were also used on a slightly larger scale in the production of this model. The Honda RC213V is characterized by great performance, stability at high speeds and sharp turns, it is also maneuverable and has a very good grip. Beyond all doubt, the Honda RC213V has proven to be a very successful motorcycle. Marc Marquez, taking part in it, won the title of the World Champion four times in 2013, 2014, 2016 and 2017. However, she won the Constructors' World Championship five times.
