Absolutely brilliant! Can't believe I missed this posting till now.

I've built several 1/12 Tamiya bike kits and loved everyone of them. That was years ago, before they make all the aftermarket detail items for them.

I really enjoyed checking these out! GREAT JOB!!!

Thanks Ben. Ive been building quite a few bikes of late. They're great for engine detail, and Tamiya has done a fine job even with very old kits. You may have seen this one, but here it is again, built with full aftermarket details that cost 3 x the bike kit.

Thanks mate. The repetition was brutal, but taught me good lessons, like focus and patience
