Overview of the Tamiya 14133 Yamaha YZF-R1M

The Yamaha YZF-R1M takes cues from Yamaha's racing program, pairing a 998cc four-cylinder engine rated around 200hp with advanced control systems. The Tamiya 1/12 replica captures those signature elements in miniature, offering a compact but accurate representation for display or diorama work.
