Detailed 1/12 Yamaha YZR-500 Taira Scale Model

The Tamiya 14075 - 1/12 Yamaha YZR-500 Taira Version reproduces the iconic 1983 racing motorcycle, showing the two-cycle, water-cooled, four-cylinder configuration and compact layout that influenced its handling. The low centre of gravity and engine packaging are represented to reflect the original engineering.

Yamaha's move to an aluminium frame over the traditional double-cradle form brought weight savings and greater rigidity, features reflected in the bike's silhouette. This kit is for hobbyists who want a faithful exterior replica of the YZR-500's racing form.

How long does a typical build take?

Build time depends on experience, but expect several evenings to assemble, paint and apply decals carefully to achieve a neat finish suitable for display.

Will the kit match reference photos of the original bike?

The kit reproduces the bike's external shapes and livery closely; using reference photos for paint tones and weathering will help you match the original even more accurately.
