1:12 Tamiya 14121 Honda NSR500 1984 - Japanese Racing Motorcycle Plastic Model kit
Build a legendary Japanese Grand Prix racing motorcycle with the 1:12 Tamiya 14121 Honda NSR500 from 1984. This detailed plastic model kit lets you recreate the early version ridden by Freddie Spencer to victory in the 1984 Italian Grand Prix. With its distinctive V4 engine, unique aluminium frame and radical arrangement of expansion chambers and fuel tank, the finished model captures the unmistakable character of 1980s motorcycle racing.
Honda developed the NSR500 after the NS500 and its two-stroke V3 engine had won the 1983 World Championship, but more power was considered necessary for the following season. For 1984, Honda introduced a new single-crankshaft V4 configuration combined with a radical chassis layout. The expansion chambers were positioned above the engine, while the fuel tank was placed below it. Although the 1984 season proved challenging, the NSR500 demonstrated its potential by winning the championship the following year and remained an important racing design for many years.
Tamiya gives you plenty of opportunities to showcase the engineering. The V4 engine, aluminium frame, complex fuel tank, four expansion chambers and rear suspension are all carefully reproduced. Vinyl tubing represents fuel lines, throttle cables and clutch cables, while fine screws and a metal spring add extra realism. The cowling parts and fuel tank can also be removed after assembly, allowing the mechanical details to remain visible. At Most-Models.com, you benefit from fast delivery and excellent customer service.
