Why produce a model that is THAT bad & who buys them?:pig:

Love the innovative swing-arm mounted footpegs! Grimeca wheels I think (where's Bob with the Jota - he'll know). Maybe it's actually one of these fine scale models...

Yeah,pretty crappy.
Not a patch on these little beauties.:)

Now that is a proper collection of class machinery.
Nice, where did you get those tasty bikes from.
Even better if you had all those in full size.

Nice...the police sponsored one is the tamiya kit..and the others are protar..except that one on the plinth which is pretty cool !! Whered that come from ??!

Here's mine - just had tyres and a full service (including belts!)

more nice mods , nice mate.
one tiny point though, they have stuck early 851 rearsets on it, sp4 had the revised flavour.
just nit picking on a monday night.
nice one mate.
:D:D

The smaller 888 on the plinth is a Protar!Its a scaled down version of the bigger ones.Quality is pretty good,the frame and forks are made of metal.
We used to have a great model shop in town where I could get them from.They even had a Protar catalogue to choose from.
The shop has now sadly gone,but I did see a guy selling Protar stuff at the MotoGP.

Red - well spotted mate. I think you're right. I've been keeping my eyes open for some nice CF one's on eBay tho! The diameter of the exhaust tubing is way too narrow as well, so that'll be the next job.. and.. and then.. (Whoa! Is we anoraks or WOT? Think I'd best stick to those SUPER paper ones!) :roll:
