Honda VT250F

Another old Tamiya Honda (released in 1983) from my stash. Simple and quick build, have been working with this about two weeks, and it is almost done.


Frame and body parts prepared form paint.

Fiddling with the frame, tight fitting.

That is all for today!

Fuel tank, seat and rear fairing are on. Unfortunately the white color of the decals are a bit out of register, seen especially on the left side of rear fairing and on the Honda-logo on the front fairing.

And completed!

Sweet looking bike! The bikes from 80s do have their own charm.

You made the building look easy, the bike came out great. Thanks for sharing it with us!
