Tamiya 14121 1/12 Scale Honda NSR500 84 Collector Kit  [14121]

Classic 1984 Honda NSR500 recreated by Tamiya 14121

The NSR500 was a defining Grand Prix machine in the 1980s, advancing Honda's racing technology beyond the NS500. Its V4 engine and aluminium frame arrangement allowed an efficient layout for expansion chambers and the fuel tank, with the 1984 season acting as a crucial period of refinement ahead of later successes.

Scale accuracy and authentic parts

Tamiya's 1/12 model accurately reflects the NSR500s construction, featuring a replicated aluminium frame, detailed fuel tank, and vinyl tubing to represent fuel and wiring runs. The kit emphasizes authenticity and provides a meticulous building challenge for collectors.

Assembly details and realistic movement

The model allows removal of the front cowling, expansion chamber cover and seat cowling after construction, giving access for display or maintenance. The rear Pro-Link suspension is movable and sprung with a coil, and the swing arm includes truss style detailing. An optional front fork set can be purchased separately to upgrade the front-end realism.
