2021 Honda RC213V Repsol Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Honda's sport motorcycle platform, the 2021 Honda RC213V Repsol relies on a 999 cc (61 cu in) liquid-cooled v4, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 248.1 HP (181.1 kW) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 248.3 HP per liter, the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.

On the scales, the RC213V Repsol measures 160 kg (353 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 1.55 HP/kg (0.64 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 830 mm (32.7 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,435 mm (56.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 22-liter (5.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 355 km/h (221 mph).
