Classic 1982 Kawasaki KR500 Rendered in 1/12 Scale

The Tamiya 21062 faithfully recreates the Kawasaki KR500 from the 1982 Grand Prix era with historically accurate styling. Renowned for its aluminium monocoque chassis and a 498cc water-cooled engine, the KR500 remains significant to racing history and model collectors.

High Fidelity Parts and Finish

Tamiya applies precise engineering to this 1/12 scale model, using a die-cast engine to add heft and AS/ABS resin components for crisp detail. The lime green paint and pad-printed decals mirror the original racing machine.

Exhibition-grade Detail for Shelves and Cabinets

Model highlights include a realistic front suspension layout, functioning-looking disc rotors and brake calipers, plus vinyl tubing for brake and throttle lines. The buffed aluminium fuel tank and gold-painted silencer chambers complete the KR500s iconic look.

  • Scale: 1/12
  • Material: Die-cast plus AS and ABS resin elements
  • Finish: Lime green livery with pad-printed decals
  • Features: Detailed suspension, vinyl tubing for cables, aluminium fuel tank

Which parts are metal versus resin?

The engine uses die-cast metal for realistic weight while many external panels and details are molded in AS and ABS resin.

Does the model include factory-applied markings?

Yes, pad-printed markings are applied to match the original race livery and the lime green finish is factory applied.

Is this model suitable for close-up photography?

Absolutely. The fine suspension detail, vinyl cable work and metallic finishes make it well suited to close-up shots for social feeds or catalogues.
