Yamaha YZR500_Norick Abe's 1998 Ride

[curt raitz]

Occasionally, I need to build a Tamiya Motorbike...especially after a very involved build, i.e. Lombardo's Allison Special.

I find the motorbike kits from Tamiya to be very comforting and relaxing to build, but usually I'll throw in a twist,.

With this one I found a set of decals from "Museum Collection" (MCLDC-439) to build a version of Norick Abe's 1998 Yamaha YZR500.

Hope you enjoy...

thanx for lookin'

Man that is great! I love the 2 stroke Gran Prix bikes. I've got to try building one of those some day.

Quite a resurrection here! 

I've just ordered these Norick decals but am unsure if they come with a painting guide. 

Would you be able to let me know what you did with regards to paint choice and layout, please? 

Your result looks fantastic.
