Paul's Build of the Tamiya 1/6 scale CX500 Turbo Motorcycle
Posted April 2015
The Tamiya Honda CX500 motorbike kit was a personal build for me as I used to own one very similar, (just minus the turbo).
The kitset was nicely detailed and went together very well. With a detailed engine and working suspension, many parts were screwed or bolted together. However glue was still required for much of the assembly.
The biggest issue I had was with the decals, which ripped while applying them.
So finally, I decided to just paint the bike metallic blue, which was the colour of my own bike.
