Re: 2007 Honda Rc212v "stock"

Here in Mexico is really hard to find tamiya models, or recent tamiya models, I have got the fzr1000, the rc30, the ducati 888, harleys, etc, the only recent bike I got is the rossis honda rc211v valencia, and somebody got the ducati desmosedici 2004 before me, and I have really little time to model so it would be really long to complete a tamiya model, so I easilly get new-ray bikes and make express modificatios.

You are right about the lights, I was thinkin in only doing a paint job, but if I really want to modify the bike I have to take the chalenge, Ill try to make it just like it is in the picture, I was lookind in my 1/12 junkyard and I found the right pieces for this purpuse, they came from different ducatis:

So this is the work I have to do:

Ill get the tires from a ducati 999 I just finished, and I have to modify the ducati 916 headlight to make it sharper.
If you have some advice, welcome, or some ideas, like heat walls or mesh grilles, bike stand, etc.
I havent decided if paint it red or white.
Thanks
