Ten straight wins at the 8 Hours is nowhere near as easy as it sounds. Eight hours at Suzuka in the dead of summer — if even one piece of the machine, rider, or team crumbles, it's over. Honda's sheer will to pull that off with the VTR1000SPW and then the CBR1000RR gives me chills, and I've seen this stuff firsthand. Endurance racing is the ultimate test of total strength.

10 straight titles is a staggering record, makes me curious what actually ended the streak too.

The bike must've changed several times across those 10 straight titles — how did they manage each transition period?

I've heard the switchover period from the VTR to the CBR was especially hard on development.

Curious what Yamaha and Suzuki, the rivals at the time, were doing to compete during this stretch.

Having the series look back like this really brings the atmosphere of that era back to life.

Ten straight titles with the VTR1000SPW and CBR1000RR - Honda's strength back then still amazes me.
