This is a really nice model to put together. It even has the spark plug wires. I messed up one of the tires trying to put it on the rim, so I wrote the company and they sent me one out . It only took a week and they didn't even charge me for the part. All and all a really good build.

My first time on a Tamiya kit and let me tell you the assembling with screws on the fork,the shocks and the engine onto the frame,the brake lines,clutch and speedometer etc... really fun to assemble. I think Tamiya is going all in! with these kit and the sprue really easy to take the pieces off no scaling and well numbered easy to read. there is sometimes tricky area for assembling the pieces together, I will certainly do some more Tamiya kit because i think they are the competition of Revell. i would certainly recommend.
