    Tamiya RD250 & 350

    No real issues with these kits, decals a nightmare on the 350, 250s were fine. The 350 just fell apart once wetted.luckily i had copied them with the scanner and printer out a new set once i had titivated them a bit, both in white and came out quite well simon

          Mine was in the 125s era, just, but the rd 250 air cooled was one of the first bikes i had after i passed my test fun to ride and work on nothing complicated about it and quick enough for me… i had the 400 air cooled after that but couldn't keep it in pistons, then on a wet cold evening the con-rod snapped and jammed in the exhaust port totalled the engine and the pants i was wearing, there was more than 1 long skid mark on the road. Funnily enough i rember lifting it in to my friends ford cortina’s boot and getting a lift home with half the bike hanging out the back ? the things you do for love

              Very nice Simon. I've got these two in the stash from when they were last re-issued. I also built the 350 first time round.
