My latest 2 Tamiya bike builds!

Hi all, i aquired 2 x Tamiya Yamaha RZV500R bike kits, these are Japanese spec bikes, in this country, we got RD500LC'S.

I decided to build these as UK spec bikes, the main differences being the colour scheme as well as aluminium frame compared to th UK steel frame.

Anyway, here is the box,






Here is the real bikes to compare,




And here are my efforts,





























And that's it! Apologies for the photos, must get a decent camera!
Not entirely happy with the tanks, so may pull them off & re-do them

Must say a huge thanks to Red Firecracker for making up the decals, perfect & far easier to apply than the originals! Highly recommended! Cheers Kelvin!
