Ok John and Simon, then I will start a short wip . Tamiya's KR500 is quite an old kit (1984). Many details are not as accurate as today's models, there was also only a PE kit from Acustion.

Next up on my bench is the Tamiya '99 Red Bull Yamaha WCM YZR500. I'm using the Scale Motorsport detail set for this and Zero paints.

Hi Guys Here is my Stoner replica of his 06 Honda monster, the kit is normal Tamiya quality with no issues on fitting and I did the best I could with being adventurous and adding details, this is my most complex build so far as I invested in the Hobby Design chain set which was such a pain to build for a novice, but you gotta start somewhere right? Bits included Hobby Design chain, Tamiya front fork set, and Top Studio carbon decal set. Onto the pics, I hope you like it (I have painted the stand since these pics were taken)
