Tamiya 14006 Honda CB750F Kit Overview

The Tamiya 1/12 scale Honda CB750F kit reproduces the classic CB750F in miniature, offering a faithful complement to a scale bike collection. The parts are tuned to capture the original machine's lines and mechanical character.

Historical Context and Influence

Introduced in June 1979, the Honda CB750F built on the CB750 heritage and incorporated styling from the CB900F and racing RCB variants. Its aesthetics helped shape mainstream motorcycle design into the 1980s.

Kit Features and Build Considerations

Modellers will find accurate reproductions of the double cradle frame, semi-air front suspension and FQV style rear damping. Brake detailing includes dual piston calipers with twin front discs and a single rear disc to mirror the prototype.

Presentation and Collector Interest

Once complete, the model presents the CB750F's aggressive profile and racing-inspired front fender, making it a standout for display cases, shelves or themed model layouts.

Yes, the kit is intended as a static display model. Builders can assemble and paint the kit for shelf display or use it as part of a larger diorama.
Basic painting techniques are sufficient, but careful masking and thin coats will improve the result. Many modellers use airbrushes for smooth finishes, though brush painting can also achieve good results.
