I tried a search with negative results...I am curious about what killed the Honda 4 stroke motor experiment....

I did enjoy hearing them run but I never had one....

No RPM

Too heavy and no RPM, which is why I think they used to run alcohol in them, to get more rpm. The Size was an issue too with some of the chassis. It would fit in some and not in others.

I believe that the size of the motor was one strike against it, as like stated above it would not fit all chassis. Second I believe that there was too many modifications made to try and get it competitive with the 2 cycle motor. I may be wrong. Another thing was it was run on alcohol and that fuel was banned at QSAC races.
