Hasegawa 21762 - 1/12 Tech21 Yamaha YZR500 (OW98) 1988: Retro Grand Prix model

The Tech21 Yamaha YZR500 (OW98) from 1988 is captured in Hasegawa's 1/12 scale kit, providing a faithful miniature of that period race bike. This model is built for those who enjoy detailed assembly and historical race replicas.

Detailing and finish

Fine moulded features and panel shapes allow for a convincing finish once painted and decaled. The kit reproduces the bike's distinctive fairing and racing lines, letting builders highlight period details in close-up displays.

Build requirements

This kit requires deliberate assembly work and is best approached with standard modelling tools. Expect to use glue, putty and paint to achieve a polished result that reflects the original machine.

Collector appeal

When complete, the YZR500 makes a compact but eye-catching display piece. Its historical value and authentic appearance make it a strong addition to any race bike collection.
