The Tamiya 14071 presents a finely detailed 1/12 scale model of the Repsol Honda NSR500 ridden by Michael Doohan in the 1998 season. The kit focuses on accurate proportions and race-specific detailing to satisfy scale motorcycle fans.
The engine is modelled as a 2-stroke, 4-cylinder unit with the crankcase and airbox moulded together for correct alignment and easier assembly. Once completed, the engine is secured to the main frame using small screws for a stable, authentic result.
Body cowls are formed to allow removal after assembly so you can display the bike with internal parts visible. Waterslide decals and step-by-step illustrated instructions are supplied to assist in painting and finishing the original Repsol colours.
