Yes, the kit focuses on the original proportions and key styling cues. The Takegawa parts provide period-correct customised elements seen on many real bikes.
The scale and detail level make it suitable for small dioramas depicting street scenes or workshop settings. Consider adding figures and props to enhance context.
Handle small pieces with tweezers, dry-fit components first, and use minimal glue to avoid excess. Storing parts in labelled trays reduces the risk of loss during assembly.
