I removed the {{ Proposed deletion}} tag because this page should not be deleted; it should be renamed.
There should exist a page that lists Honda's racing motorcycles. The real problem with Honda RC series is that it is hung up on the initials "RC" and goes down a rabbit hole trying to untangle the hows and whys of Honda's code name system. This page should be moved to Honda Grand Prix motorcycles, which aligns it with {{ Honda Grand Prix motorcycles}} and allows it to serve as an adjunct to main article, Honda Racing Corporation. -- Dbratland ( talk) 19:15, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
I have made these changes becuase it makes no sense to include in a list of "RC models" every Honda production bike having an engine size between 650cc and 899cc, merely because it had a model number beginning with "RC" (there is an unrelated reason for this coincidence), so I have pared this page back to what I think is its purpose, which is to provide information about Honda Racing (HRC) race bikes. If there is a pressing need to have a page about the RC30, RC45 and "RC51", then there should be a separate page about the Honda homologation bikes. This should, of course, include those bikes' WSB successor, the CBR1000RR, which is technically an "SC" model, but could also include many other HRC-modified Honda production motorcycles across all of the racing disciplines, from road racing to motocross, and with all different engine sizes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JZH ( talk • contribs) 16:53, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
