Great 'bike. Could be a 1:1 with the right background. Well done!

Looks real enough to jump on and ride away!  The wheels are especially nice.

Could you tell us a little more about it?  What's the scale?  Is it totally scratch-built or a modified kit?  Thanks!

I only just realised there's a few key bits missing - doh! so I guess it's not quite done yet!

Hello Mike999, It is a Model Factory Hiro kit. 1/9 scale. Beautiful model. As I remember he had a real hard time with the tank. Model factory hiro kits have a lot of white metal so a metal polisher is required. Like a rock tumbler. It is a beautiful model. MFH kits are very hard to assemble ! Glad you like the bike. It’s so cool I had to post it.

Have you got the exhausts and filler caps. Bruce?

The tank is a work of art.

Hello Don. I do not have them as this is not my model. It is a friends ,that I took a pic of his bike. This was during construction.

Thanks. There's a few of us would like to see the finished machine! Any chance, Bruce?

That is stunning! Looks so real. Your friend does amazing work.

What makes this kit very life-like are the scale-thin spokes and nipples.  In other kits those are usually dead giveaways that they are models.
