Antena 3 Yamaha YZR500 Team D'Antin 2002 1/12 Plastic Assembly Kit - Tamiya 14091  [14091]

Antena 3 Yamaha YZR500 d'Antin 2002 in 1/12 by Tamiya 14091

This is a 1/12 scale plastic assembly kit that recreates the Antena 3 Yamaha YZR500 Team D'Antin from 2002, designed for display-scale modelling and detailed paintwork.

The YZR500 name represents Yamaha's two-stroke 500cc Grand Prix racing machines developed for top-level road competition. In 2002 the series began seeing 4-stroke 990cc entries while two-stroke bikes like the V4 YZR500 remained competitive. The Antena 3 Yamaha d'Antin was campaigned by Norifumi Abe in that season, notable for a light, agile V4 two-stroke package with prominent bodywork and twin exhausts.

The kit captures the race body panels, rear exhaust layout and general engine silhouette associated with the YZR500. Key panels such as the seat and a number of cowlings are removable to simplify painting and detailing. Decals for the specified race numbers are included, and assembly follows standard plastic model techniques to allow weathering and finishing to reference material.

A clean scale representation focused on the exterior form and race livery, well suited to modellers aiming for an accurate display finish.
