Suzuki Hayabusa

I've ended my 2 year modeling vacation, and finally completed a model.

I built this bike mostly box stock. I added carbon fiber decal to the mufflers, and blacked out the aluminum frame and swing-arm. I also tinted the windscreen.

The color is Mica Red. This was my first motorcycle build, and I had fun building it.

Nice work, Matt. Glad to see more of your work. Good color choice.

Thanks for the nice comments guys.

Completing this got the modeling juices flowing, and I'm looking forward to finishing another project real soon.

Well done!

Why not keep the bikes coming? You are very skilled and would be a great compliment to our arena! Nice job!

Lookin good. Maybe you can do a little wash on the brakes and some heatstaining on the exhausts?

I think your right, the brakes could use a wash.

The exhaust is heat stained. The part you see outside of the fairings really doesn't stained on the real bike, it just gets dirty.
