geetee66 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 This must be only the second bike I've ever built. The other was a tiny scooter that came with a set of Aoshima wheels. I got it from someone at work as a thank you for a favour I did them. It's been kicking about for years and as a result, the decals were very fragile. The tyre logos disintegrated. anyway, a great change from my cars and gave me something to do while I decide which car to build it's boxed as Airfix, but I think the original is by Heller. Great fun..only 22 parts! I've made 1/24 engines with a higher count ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim B Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 That's pretty cool. I didn't even know they made 1/24 scale motorcycles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteski Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I like it! I built some 1:6, 1:9, and 1:12 scale bikes. This one must be tiny compared to those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty small alright! I had no idea they made them in 1/24, either. It'll look good in my garage diorama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geetee66 Posted February 19, 2020 Author Share Posted February 19, 2020 Finished the bike. Just gotta get the decals on the little Kenny figure now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geetee66 Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 Well, little Kenny doesn't want to sit on his bike properly, so I'll decapitate him and just use the helmet. Shame, because those decals were a proper bugger to get on. anyway, here's some better finished photos: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RancheroSteve Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) Nice job! I like those 1/24 scale bikes - simple, but they build up very well. The decals were fragile even when they were new. I built a couple about 14 years ago - the one you did and the one shown below - and I seem to remember having to get a replacement decal set for one of them. I've still got a Honda and Yamaha waiting to be built. Edited February 27, 2020 by RancheroSteve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 22 parts or thereabouts and some nice details. Good tyres, too. Could be made into a street fighter, with a bit of a tweak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
