Tamiya 14070 CBR 1100XX Super Blackbird Retro 1/12 Scale Motorcycle Kit  [14070]

What makes the Honda CBR 1100XX Super Blackbird notable

The Honda CBR 1100XX Super Blackbird arrived in 1996 as a benchmark machine, combining roughly 165 horsepower with a top speed beyond 300 km/h. Its streamlined silhouette was refined through wind tunnel testing, and the bike's slim front profile with piggy-back combo headlights is faithfully reproduced in the model.

Detailing and construction highlights

This 1/12 scale Tamiya kit reproduces the Super Blackbird's aerodynamic cowling and the dual-shaft balancer in the engine layout. The parts include shaped air intakes and elements that reflect the original combined braking system, so builders can achieve an authentic look with careful assembly.

Presentation and display advantages

For display collectors, this Tamiya model is a strong choice. Its proportionate lines and mechanical accuracy make it a standout piece on a shelf or in a showcase collection when finished with accurate paint and decal work.
