    That is so stunning...
    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.

    That's some serious attention to detail...

    Very well done.

    Any idea of the cost of the kitset?

    Edit: $49.95 from Hobby City.

    If anyone can read Japanese I'd be interested to know if it says how many hours went into it.

    The up grade kits would probably take the price to 10 times that amount though.

    It's Traditional Chinese -- I think he says at the beginning it took more than a month, although he might be talking about something else.

    Model builders are a strange breed.

    that takes insanity to a whole new level... that is incredible! I would have lasted all of 2 hours looking at all the little bits and then cracked probably

    The other day I saw toy R6 and ninjas that pulled wheelies, if they had had a gixer i would have bought it just for the hell of it! (they were relativley cheap) But they didn't!

    At the end he says it took him one month. He spent three days just to get the decal on the windscreen right, and another three days to polish all the fairings.

    He says he could have bought four more of the same models with the money he spent on the upgrade kits.

    Near the bottom of the page he has a picture of the real bike as a comparison, can anyone spot the difference? (It's got different decals, haha)

    Check out his blog here, and see all his models here (can't seem to be able to view the individual models though).
    Motorcycling is like life - it's about the journey, not the destination.
