Seriously Tim, if I didnt know this was a model I would have mistaken it for the real thing. A very tidy build. Glad you had a lot of fun with it.

Wow, thanks Steve..appreciate that comment a lot.

I’m amazed no one noticed that the CB750F decal on the number plate support is crooked :flushed: Perhaps you were all too kind to mention it....

Hi Tim
A cracking result. Despite its short comings you have made a model to be very proud of.

Thanks Tony, appreciate the sentiment.......of course, Tamiya kits always make a clean build easier to achieve.....
