What more to add, George @chinesegeorge
An excellent result.

Fantastic work George! I LOVE IT! I need to get this kit…I cut my teeth on Ducati 😉

@chinesegeorge - that looks like a beautiful kit George. No paints though, cool... I think... I have built gundam kits without painting, so I guess. Regardless, I'm looking forward to the build! It'll be interesting to get your take on the kit overall.

This looks like an amazing kit, George @chinesegeorge
No paint and glue, looking forward to your experience on this.

Good morning everyone @brithebuilder, @anthonyricco, @gblair, @rory, @bikequeen, @johnb, @fiveten, @eb801, @richardmcstay48gmail-com. So let’s look at this kit. Here’s a picture of the parts, mostly pre-coloured ABS, rubber tyres, a little bit of etching, mainly the brake discs, some transfers, and 49 screws.

The engine assembly comes first, in three steps, you need to follow the instructions carefully in order to assemble the parts in the correct order.

Everything so far is a push fit, no cement needed, but some parts need a pretty hefty push and I’m afraid of breaking something.

Anyway, that’s the main part of the engine done, lots more to come.

Thanks for looking and happy modelling.

That engine looks impressive, my friend @chinesegeorge!

George @Chinesegeorge You can’t go wrong with Meng. I was also wondering if you are going to do a light wash? Going to be a beauty when you finish..

Hi ladies and gentlemen, @brithebuilder, @anthonyricco, @gblair, @rory, @bikequeen, @johnb, @fiveten, @eb801, @richardmcstay48gmail-com. Thanks for looking and your kind comments. In answer to the questions re washes, I’m not planning to do that at the moment, maybe later.

The next part of the assembly covers the rear swing arm and shock absorber.

Lots of pushing and shoving, and the first parts needing screws, for which Meng supply a rather snazzy looking, slightly magnetised, screwdriver.

The rear shock absorber construction continues, and it’s time to add the rear tyre to the wheel, here we see the first glimpse of the carbon effect printing on the wheel.

Plenty more to come, thanks again for looking, and happy modelling.
