1320 Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 I opened this one a little while ago but went no further, out again now and I'll get into it. It's been built to death by everyone but I'll put my spin on it anyway. I have the base Tamiya kit, the Tamiya fork set, and a cheap small PE set from crazy modeller. Also a PE and resin clutch which I don't remember building but I must have already! Jim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320 Posted July 19, 2023 Author Share Posted July 19, 2023 I've been working a lot but got some time last night for this one. I glued the sub assemblies together for the engine and fairings which was a great start. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320 Posted September 27, 2023 Author Share Posted September 27, 2023 Onward with this build, I've been modifying it to run 2mm aluminium tube instead of screws in the axles and pivots, painted all the green stuff in Tamiya TS22 green and started laying on some decals. Not enough pics but you get the idea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320 Posted October 1, 2023 Author Share Posted October 1, 2023 And more decals! The panel on the right side has 6 separate parts to the decal. Also more fab work and prep for further painting. Jim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320 Posted October 3, 2023 Author Share Posted October 3, 2023 More decals, a little touching up will be needed in between the black ones, then some clear to seal them in. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320 Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 I'm back into this one for a while, I started assembling the forks and continued painting and weathering the engine and rear shock. Sometimes I think I weather too much, sometimes it looks VERY old and dirty. Its great to get back into one for me again, I do enjoy building for others but it is good to be able to change along the way. I'm just looking at the ECUs on this one, I could drill the ends and run a heap of wiring. It could be a straight forward addition!

NYLIBUD Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 (edited) Great start.I have that same kit.I don’t normally build motorcycles,but this kit spoke to me,it reminded me of my own Ninja RR.Yours looks a lot nicer.I laid mine down shortly after i bought it.Hung onto it,until it was basically stripped for its parts by some friends.🤷♂️🤬Whatever.But really excellent job choosing that color,and laying those decals on.I was just drawn into Kawasaki bikes,I think for the attraction i have to Lime Green,or (Kawasaki),Ninja green,whatever you wanna call it.🤷♂️😁 Edited February 3 by NYLIBUD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
