Tamiya 14074 - 1/12 Yamaha YZF-R1 Taira Racing Detailed Replica Kit  [14074]

Authentic YZF-R1 Taira Racing Model for Detailed Builds

The Tamiya 14074 - 1/12 Yamaha YZF-R1 Taira Racing model kit recreates the compact sportbike that changed the scene in 1997. It offers a hands-on build that highlights race-tuned components and accurate finishing touches for display.

Race-Inspired Upgrades and Craftsmanship

Renowned for its blend of agility and power, the Yamaha YZF-R1 was enhanced by Taira Racing with parts such as a titanium muffler and carbon fibre fender under the direction of Tadahiko Taira. This kit faithfully reproduces those race-inspired elements for scale authenticity.

Assembly Options and Finish Details

Modelers can choose between a two-seat or single-seat configuration in this 1/12 static kit, which also reproduces the Delta Box II Frame using plated parts to mimic metal surfaces. Decals include a carbon pattern for the rear fender and a black gradation for the under cowl, and a UV-filter sticker is supplied for the windscreen.
