SUZUKI GSX1300R HAYABUSA - Tamiya 1/12

Hello!
This is my first post on this forum My name is Tomasz and I'm from Poznan, Poland. I build cars and bikes from about 3 years.

Now I'm working on Tamiya's Hayabusa. I'm going to add some extras to the kit:
- Crazy Modeler photoethed set (disk brakes, radiator mesh, chain with sporcktes etc.)
- aluminium valves
- screws and nuts from T2M
- silver/blue Zero Paints (box art picture)

I grinded front of the frame to add new polistyrene parts to the head tube.







I filled the swingarm inside:


To be continued...

Sorry for my poor English...
