1/12 Team Pons RC211V 2003 display kit with V5 detail - Tamiya 14095  [14095]

2003 Team Pons RC211V in 1/12 by Tamiya 14095

This plastic model kit reproduces the 2003 Honda Team Pons RC211V at 1/12 scale as a static display model, focusing on accurate external and mechanical representation.

The RC211V was created by Honda in the early 2000s as a four-stroke multi-cylinder prototype to replace earlier two-stroke competition bikes. Its compact V5 configuration worked alongside an advanced chassis layout, including a unit pro-link rear suspension. In 2003 Team Pons adopted revised bodywork and rider-specific fittings reflecting the era's aerodynamic and setup choices.

The kit models the Team Pons changes such as the modified tank cover and seat cowl, and includes the bike's defining bodylines. Parts capture the fuel tank profile, upper-cowl ram air ducting, enlarged rear intake shapes, and exhaust arrangement. The assembly flow is organised to assemble engine, frame, then suspension for cleaner construction and alignment.

Key construction features include metal-plated frame and swingarm elements, separate upper and seat cowl panels that attach with small screws, and decal sheets for both Team Pons liveries. Engine covers and visible drivetrain housings are cast as individual parts to preserve realistic surface detail during painting.

A precise static kit suited to modellers who want a faithful Team Pons RC211V display model with accurate external detailing.
