Hasegawa 1/12 scale kit: Yamaha RZ250 (4L3) 1980

The Yamaha RZ250 arrived in 1980 as a compact, high-performance two-stroke that became popular for its handling and engine character. Hasegawa's 1/12 kit reproduces that machine in scale, giving modellers accurate shapes and fine surface detail to work with.

Model features and why it matters to builders

The original RZ250 featured advancements such as liquid cooling and a single rear shock. The kit reflects these components through precise moulded parts, offering enthusiasts a hands-on way to study and replicate period engineering on a small scale.

Construction approach and showcase ideas

Careful alignment of the frame and engine units is important to achieve realistic proportions. Finished models stand out on shelves or in cases, especially when painted and detailed to match period finishes and trim.
