Yono Station and Saitama-Shintoshin Station on the Keihin-Tōhoku Line (the latter also on the Takasaki and Tōhoku Main Lines) straddle the border between Chūō-ku and other Saitama wards, but are officially located in Urawa-ku and Ōmiya-ku respectively.
Carburetor versions used either a single or 2bbl downdraft Keihin.
In contrast to the RC142, the aircooled, four-stroke, twin cylinder engine of the RC143 was canted forward by 35° to improve cooling and increase air-flow to the newly designed Keihin carburettors.
In and near Tokyo, it parallels the routes of the Dai-ichi Keihin, Dai-ni Keihin, and Tomei Expressways, the Tōkyū Den-en-toshi Line, Odakyu Odawara Line, Gotemba Line, and other transportation systems.
