Detail-up set Tamiya 12690 - Front Fork Upgrade for 1/12 Honda CBR1000RR-R (14138)  [12690]

Fine detail for the 1/12 Honda CBR1000RR-R using Tamiya 12690 parts

Model builders seeking improved authenticity will appreciate the Tamiya 12690 front fork detail-up set, created for the 1/12 Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP kit (item 14138). It replaces standard kit items with purpose-made parts for a cleaner scale look.

Metal and plastic parts that match the prototype

This upgrade comprises precision metal and plastic pieces that take the place of original kit components. The outer tubes and reservoir tank show a gold anodized finish that reflects the real bike. Fork top parts combine blue, gold and non-anodized sections, and the inner brass tubes are plated gold for a convincing effect.

Subtle colour and texture improvements

Black anodized dust seals are included, and the damper spring is supplied in a realistic yellow finish to contrast with the kit's black spring. These refinements add depth to the model without changing the base assembly approach.
