Tamiya 21150 - 1/12 Scale Honda RS1000 1981 Finished Replica  [21150]

Accurate Miniature of the 1981 Honda RS1000

The Honda RS1000 earned respect in long-distance racing for robust performance and mechanical clarity. Tamiya 21150 recreates the 1981 race machine at 1/12 scale, highlighting the air-cooled 4-stroke DOHC engine that stems from the CB900F lineage. Key race results, such as a second-place overall in the season and a Suzuka 8 Hour win, are represented in this faithful model.

Detail Enhancements on the Completed Model

This finished piece improves on the kit by adding a refined cowl screen, mesh pipework that imitates braided lines, and added touches like breather tubes and front brake cable runs. The engine receives careful paint work, the sprockets and chain show precise modelling, and the exhaust features subtle shading. Metallic stickers on the fork give extra visual fidelity for display shelves.
