Hers my offering for the GB, never done a motor bike kit but was extremely lucky to briefly ride the real thing back in 1996.

Ooh that's rather lovely. There's something brutally elegant about this series of bikes. The one I briefly rode was chassis number 6 IIRC ( the first 2 allegedly went to the Sultan of Brunei ) and the owner went to Kyalami racetrack and got Agostini to sign the tailpiece which I had to clearcoat over to preserve it. He's still got the bike.

Wait. Is that 1-to-1 scale modelling?

There's a lot of cross-over skills.....

But a lot less gluing?

I will join in too if that's okay. I will have a look later to see which Tamiya kit will become a bench victim
