Honda RA272 Engine Sound Experience & After-Talk Show with Mr Miyagi Hikaru at the Tamiya Fair 2025



■ On Sunday, 16th November 2025, an engine start demonstration of the legendary machine, the Honda RA272, was held at the Tamiya Fair 2025 venue. The powerful ‘Honda Music’ produced by the 1.5-litre V12 engine drew enthusiastic applause from attendees.

■ Following the demonstration, a talk show was held featuring Mr Hikaru Miyagi, a former Honda works rider who now serves as a test rider and driver at the Honda Collection Hall. He shared insights and anecdotes based on his experience actually driving the RA272. Please see the footage above.
