Mike Hailwood
Stanley Michael Bailey Hailwood, MBE GM (2 April 1940 – 23 March 1981) was a British professional motorcycle racer and racing driver. He is regarded by many as one of the greatest racers of all time. He competed in the Grand Prix motorcycle world championships from 1958 to 1967 and in Formula One between 1963 and 1974. Hailwood was known as "Mike The Bike" because of his natural riding ability on motorcycles with a range of engine capacities.
A nine-time world champion, Hailwood won 76 Grand Prix races during his motorcycle racing career, including 14 Isle of Man TT victories and four consecutive 500 cc world championships. After his motorcycle racing career concluded, he went on to compete in Formula One and other classes of car racing, becoming one of the few men to compete at Grand Prix level in both motorcycle and car racing. He returned to motorcycle racing at the age of 38, taking victory at the 1978 Isle of Man TT.
Hailwood died in 1981 following a road traffic accident in Warwickshire, England.
Honda RC166
The Honda RC166 is a racing motorcycle from the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer Honda from 1966.
The best-known driver of the RC166 was Mike Hailwood , who won the world title in the class up to 250 cm³ in 1961 with the Honda RC162 and in 1966 and 1967 with the RC166. The superiority of the machine was also demonstrated by the fact that Hailwood won ten of the twelve 250cc races with the RC166 in 1966 and defended his world title - even if only just - against Phil Read ( Yamaha ) in 1967 .
At that time the number of cylinders was not yet limited by the regulations, so that high performance could also be generated from four-stroke engines . In this way, Honda was able to prevail against the strong competition from two-stroke machines at the time . When the number of cylinders was limited by the regulations at the end of the 1960s, Honda could no longer keep up with the competing two-stroke engines and withdrew from this class by 1985.
In 1966 and 1967, before the regulations were changed, the RC166 achieved 17 victories in 26 starts, making it one of the most successful motorcycles in the history of the motorcycle world championship. In these two years Honda won both the drivers ` and the constructors` world championships with the model .
Technical specifications
The machine was powered by a four-stroke engine with six cylinders , which had a displacement of 249.42 cm³ and an output of 44 kW (60 hp ) at a speed of up to 18,000 rpm - a technical novelty for its time.
The engine with a bore of 39 mm and a stroke of 34.8 mm produced a cylinder volume of 41 cm³ per combustion chamber and discharged its exhaust gases via a six-in-six exhaust system. Since these machines are individual small series, the specified output varies from time to time.
