Makes it easy but that's still a nice touch and the rest of the bike looks good also...big fan of MotoGP and WSBK, so this one is of interest.

1320 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Looking great Mike, I have one in the stash, good motivation right here! Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C Posted December 15, 2022 Author Share Posted December 15, 2022 I have completed the fork assembly. I used the fork kit accessory that looks better than the fork included in the kit. Frankly, the models that Tamiya makes that have these accessory detail kits should just really make them part of the kit itself instead of charging extra for them. Thanks for looking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djmcguire Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Still coming along nicely and I'd agree that the detail kits should just be made part of the kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustang1989 Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 With very few exceptions, you can never go wrong with a Tamiya kit. Great detail and ease of construction make these a "go-to" almost every time. Fantastic work on this motorcycle Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
