the kit was released over 12 years.

as the very first MotoGP champion bike the RC211V marks the beginning of a new era.

I used lots of after market parts to replicate the look of the real bike.

hope you'll like it!

WOW! WOW! WOW! Truly an incredible work of art. Even in the super close up shots everything is amazingly clean. Love the heat staining on the exhaust and brake discs. A masterpiece!

Lu Yen Wen, your build quality is the very best I have seen. Your work here is inspirational and a joy to see. Thank you for posting them here.
I have just finished searching out your other builds here and each is a work of art. I really liked both of the Ducati builds - and I would love to see what you can do with the Honda 166 too.
Thanks for the inspiration.
best regards, Brian

Excellent construction , incredible model , your skills are inspiring reasons for any modeler.

You might ask how you did the locks of the rear wheel nuts , green and transparent pink.

sorry for replying your question so late...

I did the cable with the thinnest metal wire available in any Top Studio Super detail set, and the clear green/pink tube with MFH 0.4mm clear tube.

you can just make a simple knot to fix the wire on the wheel lock pin and cut off the excess part, then get the wire through the tube, the last you can fix the other end onto the chain adjuster PE.

sorry there's no photo to further explain the process. hope there's some help.

Thank you for comment and asking!
