The Honda CR93 was a twin cylinder 125 cc four stroke racing motorcycle, manufactured during 1962-1963 as a production-volume clubman's racer, and was used in racing for many years.

Motor Sport (magazine)
''Motor Sport'' is a monthly motor racing magazine, founded in the United Kingdom in 1924 as the ''Brooklands Gazette''. The name was changed to ''Motor Sport'' for the August 1925 issue. The magazine covers motor sport in general, although from 1997 to 2006 its emphasis was historic motorsport. It remains one of the leading titles on both modern and historic racing. The magazine's photo library is currently managed by LAT Images, which founded as Motor Sport photographic division by Wesley J. Tee in the 1960s and later spun-off as a stand-alone affiliated company. The magazine's monthly podcasts have featured Christian Horner, Mario Andretti, Patrick Head, Sir Frank Williams, John McGuinness and Gordon Murray. In 1939 the magazine incorporated its rival ''Speed'' (the organ of the British Racing Drivers' Club).
