Yamaha XV1600 Road Star Custom [Kit]

Yamaha's XV1600 Road Star first went on sale in 1999 and proved a huge hit with what was at the time the biggest production bike engine at a whopping 1 -600cc. In conjunction with a 20kg crank weight and thanks to its rigid mount that powerplant treated riders to a unique thrum. The front of the XV1600 Road Star employed a telescopic fork and the rear a link type setup that hid its damper inside the frame for a rigid-esque look. Indeed - a large part of the bike's allure was in its looks - and the relative ease with which its owner could add after-market parts to truly customize their ride. From side bags to an extended windshield - there was plenty on offer for those looking to make their Road Star stand out from the crowd.

This is a 1/12 scale plastic model assembly kit. Length: 208mm - width: 89mm - height: 121mm. The powerful form of the bike is captured in style. Detailed 1600cc V-twin engine has individual cooling fins for next-level detail. Comes with both chrome and matte plated parts. With customizing parts such as studded seat - tandem pillion pad - back rest - side bags and a large windshield. Vinyl tubing is included for the recreation of various pipes and lines. Features a metal-plated depiction of the tank "RoadStar" emblem. Decals are included to recreate two models that went on sale in the year 2000. Solid synthetic rubber tires give a highly realistic finish.
