Tamiya: 1/12 Yamaha YZF-R1M – Scale Model
This scale model assembly kit recreates the 2018 spec of the highly
successful YZF-R1M. 2018 is a landmark year for the long-running YZF-R1, as it
celebrates its 20th anniversary. The YZF-R1M is the eighth generation of the
bike, released in 2015. It was designed as a circuit motorcycle, and its design
and technology were heavily influenced by data harvested from the YZR-M1 MotoGP
bike. The YZF-R1M has appeared in races such as the Superbike World Championship
and All Japan Road Race Championship, one of its highly notable achievements
being an astounding three back-to-back wins of the Suzuka 8 Hours between
2015 and 2017.
The Tamiya assembly kit model faithfully captures all the details of the
full-size bike in every way.
