Mike C Posted November 24, 2022 Author Posted November 24, 2022 (edited) The swing arm is now completed. Here it is. Edited November 25, 2022 by Mike C 1 Quote
1320 Posted December 1, 2022 Posted December 1, 2022 Looking great Mike, I have one in the stash, good motivation right here! Jim Quote
Mike C Posted December 15, 2022 Author 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
djmcguire Posted December 15, 2022 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
Mike C Posted December 22, 2022 Author Posted December 22, 2022 Now it's staring to look like a bike. Here's a walk around: 1 Quote
redscampi Posted December 30, 2022 Posted December 30, 2022 Beautiful work! Keep posting pictures please! Quote
mustang1989 Posted December 30, 2022 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
Mike C Posted January 1, 2023 Author Posted January 1, 2023 More detailing done, it looks ridable now. But more detailing to come for the fairings and decal work including some CF decals. Thanks for looking.First here's the painted fairings: Now the bike: Quote
