The Tamiya 14086 - 1/12 Yamaha YZR500 Tech 3 2001 kit is aimed at modellers keen to recreate a standout machine from the early 2000s WGP field. The kit captures the look of the bikes raced by Olivier Jacque and Shinya Nakano and reproduces key visual cues from the season.
Notable on the real bike was a water-cooled V4 engine and a lightweight aluminium chassis, which the model mirrors through accurately shaped components. The bodywork, fairing lines and racing tyres are modelled to reflect the bike's track performance focus.
Whether you display it completed or use it as a build project, this Tamiya release offers precise moulding and assembly that appeals to collectors and experienced hobbyists alike.
