Here is my built model of Rossi's bike in 1/24 by Heller. In overall kit is pretty and nice in assembling, excluding decals, which are lil' bit bigger than should be.
I used some SMS carbon in 1/24 scale on pipes and rear-wing, but I couldn't shoot photos right to show the texture...

The brake-discs on front wheel should have been thinned while building the model, but unfortunately I've noticed their thickness much later...

Looks nice, I love those little bikes! Well-done.
And I agree about the decals - they tend to be incorrectly sized and translucent.
