next thing on the bench
plan is to do it in silver just like on the box

[Tim Marlow]

Interested to see what you make of this one Paul, I enjoyed it a lot....and I did it in silver as well....I found the decals a little hard to use, not coming off the backing paper cleanly, but the rest fitted fine.....
Cheers

Nice bike to do, Paul I've do the other version, off this just the CB750F which is not custom tuned. Just be carefull off the small screws. What I done was put them in a shot glass, so I did not loose them same with the tubing, so I know where they were. Enjoy building it. I'll pop in every so often to see how, your getting on

[PaulTRose]

Ive done the ordinary version too and really enjoyed which is why i want to do this one

Hi Paul
I have never built one of these large scale motor bikes but I have seen a few completed. They make stunning models. I look forward to seeing how you get on.

back to work on this one

motor is done, went together very quickly

[Tim Marlow]

Looking good Paul.

[papa 695]

Yes looking good

[PaulTRose]

sorry for lack of pics, it just sort of fell together lol

[Dave Ward]

Paul,
do you just push on the vinyl tubes, or glue them? I've done models that will sit happily for weeks, then, the brake/spark plug/speedo lines all seem to fall off!

[PaulTRose]

so far all but one has been pushed on, seems to be a tight fit so far

[PaulTRose]

bit more done

[Tim Marlow]

Looking good Paul. Nice variation in metal finishes.....

[PaulTRose]

and finished

strangely for a tamiya kit the decals were dreadful, just wanted to break up as soon as water touched them, let alone the microsol!.........but i did the standard version of this kit a few years ago and found what was left over from that one in the spares box

more pics in the finished thread
