dimebolt Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 These are just a few of the bikes my Dad has built over the years. He is too modest to post them, so I will, lol.
Gramps46 Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Incredible builds. So realistic. Please keep them coming Corey.
Slimguy Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Cory tell your Dad that he has created some stunning bikes...gorgeous builds. We want to see more!!
dimebolt Posted April 17, 2019 Author Posted April 17, 2019 Here are the rest of the pictures I have.
NYLIBUD Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) I meant to say that your bikes are Wild looking.I have some customized Baja and Dakar Rally bikes I did awhile ago. Edited April 17, 2019 by NYLIBUD

NYLIBUD Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) Yea these bikes were built,I forgot what scale they were.Maybe 1/18th,not sure..But I weathered them and then added a bunch of custom decals.I Love desert racing bikes.Enduro,Hare Scrambles,the Dakar rally bikes,etc.I just love hitting the throttle wide open through the woods or just out in the open.Oh and road racing too.Daytona has to be the wildest track these guys race their bikes on.The Daytona 200 I think.And isn't this bike week down there?

peteski Posted April 18, 2019 Posted April 18, 2019 (edited) All beautiful models! Tamiya didn't make too many 1:6 scale bike models. If they were 1:6 scale, they would be over a foot long. They are likely standard 1:12 scale Tamiya models. Protar makes bike models in 1:9 scale. Edited April 18, 2019 by peteski
r60man Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 Your Dad's bikes seem to all be 1:12 scale kits. Tamiya made them all. I like how he built two of each, one faired and one unfaired. They are a little too expensive to me to do that. I have built or own almost all of those kits. He does great work.
