The project leader was, who in the previous decade had designed Honda’s five- and six-cylinder engines (as well as the V12 engine for auto racing) and then helped with the development of Honda’s car business.

Irimajiri-san was thus an apt choice to create an amalgamation of disparate technologies—automobile engines and multi-cylinder race bikes. A related event was the introduction of the clean-burn auto engine at the 1972 Tokyo show. It was Honda's first liquid-cooled engine to go into production; Honda cars as well as motorcycles had all been air-cooled up to that time. Soichiro Honda was not easily convinced that liquid-cooling was superior to air-cooled engines (which he had worked on for 50 years) but younger engineers eventually prevailed.

Honda F1 racing RA273E 3-liter V12 engine designed by Shoichiro Irimajiri M1 prototype [ ] During its development in the late 1960s, the CB750 was called informally the 'King of Motorcycles' so it was fitting that Honda's next big thing would become known by the moniker 'King of Kings' at inception (as well as later on). By the end of 1972, the project team had made a break with motorcycle tradition (and a complete change from Honda practice) in the form of an experimental prototype, known by the code name M1. Instead of a layout, the M1 motorcycle (still in the possession of Honda R&D today) has a, making it ideal for a driveshaft even though every prior Honda used a chain for the final drive.

Rather than a or the M1 has a, and at 1470cc, it has twice the displacement of the. Instead of designing it for high-performance (although some of the engineers wanted to) the M1 engine was built to produce plenty of torque across a wide power band. Unlike every other Honda motorcycle of the time, the M1 engine used. The M1 engine puts out 80 horsepower (60 kW) at 6700 rpm, allowing for a top speed of 220 kilometres per hour (140 mph).

On the contrary, the M1 was never meant to see the light of day.
