Tamiya 1/12 Suzuki Hayabusa "White"

After having a long break from this wonderfull hobby I decided to start up with this bike Iīve been planning years ago. The frame is stripped and painted in a carbongrey color matching a new modern finish.

Be nice now, itīs been quite a time since modelling...

Excellent! It looks stunning in white

If this is what your work looks like after a break, I can't wait to see how good it looks when you get back into the swing of things!

Re: Tamiya 1/12 Suzuki Hayabusa "White"

That bike looks awesome! I highly recommend you build more motorcycles...partly because, I like motorcycles more than any other subject. The ZX12 or ZX14 would go nicely next to it on your shelf.


Keep up the good work!,

Re: Tamiya 1/12 Suzuki Hayabusa "White"

Yes, very nice with black and white fairings, clean building !!!!

Mirror surfaces look a litte bit strange, is there clear on the chrome parts?

Re: Tamiya 1/12 Suzuki Hayabusa "White"

Thanx alot guys! I really appreciate your comments!!

JimboCO: Itīs an "old" can Duplicolorīs "Purewhite" I found in my workshop.

Twowheelsrule: I have bulid many bike before. Some of them is posted in this forum. I think th Kawa ZX12 and the Yamaha R1 is among the old threads.

sportracer02: The mirrors is those I really dont like. They are OOB but I will swap them for a foil instead.

It's great to see you back. Your busa is beautiful, and the white color looks perfect on it too!

Any chance you might finish that gorgeous E36 Touring?

Fantastic stuff. That shot over the tank into the dash looks superbly realistic.

Hard to do a white livery justice in my opinion but this is fantastic.
The bike looks super! Welcome back
