Tamiya Honda Repsol 213V '14 1/12
This model was my 2nd adventure in the hobby, and I had already learned a lot from the mistakes made in the first one. I really enjoyed building this kit, because I spent a lot of time to build the exact color that matched the original. I [...]

'Spad Dad'

Kawasaki ZZR 1400
Another Tamiya 1/12th scale motorcycle, the Kawasaki ZZR1400. Brought to you by Cricket AKA @Bikequeen : )
I have always contended there is no black and white but a million shades of grey and to me, this bike is a study in black and grey. [...]
