The Tamiya 21062 model recreates the Kawasaki KR500 raced in 1982, highlighting the bike's aluminium monocoque frame and its 498cc water-cooled engine heritage. It is aimed at hobbyists and collectors who appreciate period-correct race machines.
Tamiya combines a die-cast engine assembly with AS and ABS resin components to deliver a balance of realism and robustness in this 1/12 scale piece. The lime green finish and pad-printed markings accurately reflect the original livery.
Notable model elements include a detailed front suspension setup, genuine-looking disc rotors and brake calipers, plus vinyl tubing simulating brake and throttle lines. A buffed aluminium fuel tank and gold-painted silencer chambers round out the KR500s signature appearance.
