Hi guys,
It's been a while since I've last made a motogp model.
I've been waiting for this Yamaha YZR M1 Fiat Yamaha Team 2009 kit for almost 3 weeks. I thought I could get it before I went to Sepang last week.
When the kit arrives, I was wondering whose number shall I make first but anyway, I've decided to make Rossi's version before I make Lorenzo's version in future. Where can I get Pit Walk Photo books for both 2008 & 2009? Seems that HLJ doesn't have the books for those 2 years & I have the feeling that it's under new publisher.
If I have the time & money, I would love to add more realism on the bike but anyway, I'll be doing the out of the box version with not much realism on the model.
This is the box.
This is the engine. It's been a while since I've made 2005 M1 bikes & I'm not sure if Tamiya does like the way they did on 2006 RC211vs that is '03 engine with a '06 clutch & cover. But anyway, here are the photos of the engine.
This are the photos of the frame.
That's where I've decided to make Rossi's bike with this.
I'll continue working on it & I'll post more pictures later.
