Tamiya 14090 breakdown: Suzuki Hayabusa 1300 (GSX1300R) 1/12 scale kit

The Suzuki Hayabusa earned a name in the sportbike world for its speed and clean aerodynamic lines. Tamiya's 1/12 scale rendition gives modellers a chance to recreate that silhouette with careful detail and reliable fit.

Authentic styling influences

Known for its around 175hp output and streamlined fairing, the Hayabusa's key styling traits are represented in the kit. The model mirrors the distinctive cowling form and stacked headlight layout, providing a faithful small-scale copy suited to display cabinets.

Construction and parts quality

With a final length of 178mm and width of 71mm, the scale accuracy is apparent. The combined upper cowling and fuel tank piece reduces alignment issues during assembly. Screws secure the engine, cowling and swing arms to the frame for durability, and genuine rubber tyres enhance the tactile realism of the completed model.

Specifications

  • Overall Length: 178mm

Build time varies with experience and finishing detail, but expect several evenings to a few weekends for a neat, painted and decalled model.
The rubber tyres look authentic but can attract dust. Store the finished model in a case or on a covered shelf to keep tyres and paintwork in top condition.
Yes, modellers often add photo-etched parts, aftermarket decals or metal bolts to increase realism, though the kit is complete and accurate as supplied.
