Ridden by Freddie Spencer, the Honda RS250RW, prototype of the
NSR250, made its impressive debut at the motorcycle World Grand Prix
Championship in 1985. With a displacement of 249cc, the 2-stroke V2
cylinder format engine featured a single-pressed crankshaft and was
regarded as a scaled-down version of the larger V4 engine of the
NSR500. ln 1986, the Honda RS250RW was formally renamed the
NSR250. lnnovative features like the rear-mounted carlcuretor with
throttle sensor and electronically controlled exhaust porting system were
incorporated. ln the latter half of the 1990 Grand Prix, the side cowling
was perforated to reduce air drag, improving handling during complex
comering maneuvers. The Honda NSR250 was widely used by leading
racing teams, and served as the mount of many talented riders such as A. Mang, A. Pons, L. Cadalora, M. Biaggi and K. Daijiro. Between 1986
aîd 2002, the NSR won a total of 7 world championship titles, as well as
a number of national championships. One of the most unforgettablê of
these was Japanese rider Masahiro Shimizu's victory in the 250cc clâss
of the All-Japan Road Race Championship in 1987. Shimizu's NSR250
was sponsored by the Japanese food maker Ajinomoto, and featured the
logos and image colors of that company's "TERRA" sports drink. ln 1 988
Shimizu graduated to World Grand Prix racing and took 2nd place in the
1990 British GP, leading to a 7th place finish in the overall rider's
standings. Though he was never able to win a 1st place finish, Shimizu
showed outstanding performance and served as an important trailblazer
for subsequent world-class Japanese motorcycle riders.
