In April 1978, Honda wants to make a comeback to World GP. At that time, all of the bikes uses 2-stroke engine. Honda wants to use 4-stroke engine. So, how do they get maximum power to compete with the more powerful 2-stroker? Oval piston was the engineering piece that could answer the question. In theory, oval piston can create a V8-like engine with only 4 piston. So, V8 power in the form of V4. This technology gives me some insight of how Honda thinks to overcome a certain problems.

I must that this is only a small upgrade from the stock bore size at 50mm to the new Focus R bore size at 53mm. There is also 55mm bore size offered by Focus R. Upgrading to bigger bore cylinder block will increase the amount of fuel and air that can be mixed and burn inside the cylinder. It also increase the heat generated by the combustion of the larger amount of the combustible gas inside it. We can expect better pickup and top speed by fitting this block to the Wave 110RS or the Dash.
