Tamiya 1/12 Motorcycle Akai Yamaha YZR500 1/12 Scale 14102 Plastic Model

This is a reproduction of the 1980 Akai Yamaha YZR500. This is the machine that Barry Sheene actually raced in the Road Racing World Championships and the TBC Big Road Race. This model recreates the machine's distinctive black color scheme with red strobe lines, making it a favorite among racing fans. The cutting-edge GP racer mechanisms of the time, such as the 2-stroke in-line 4-cylinder engine and Monocross suspension, are precisely modeled. The square pipe double cradle frame is reproduced in three dimensions. The three-spoke Dymag wheels are precisely reproduced. The tires are made of solid rubber for a high-quality finish. The accelerator and brake piping are also faithfully reproduced using the included vinyl pipes. *The packaging (box) has some peeling and repair marks and crushed corners. The slide marks (decals) are made by Cartograf, and you can enjoy two types of markings: the 1980 World Championship specification and the TBC Big Road Race specification.
