Hi tom this came out the year me got me first bike Lil yam 50. Passed me test year later on 250 superdream, then the 400. Then suzuki 550. And had to give it up last year through neck damage 34 years on bike an never came off.final bike was a gsx 650f. Anyway made a start done battery, still needs decals, glued together frame and center stand. Painted this gloss black, and picked the bolts out, assembled the crank case, and infilled around the lettering. You can read the made in Japan bit at bottom.just my phone camera can't. More soon Cheers mick.  mogwai attached the following image(s): Builds hms victory, suzuki gsx 1300 R hayabusa, honda C B 750, lamborghini countach L P 500 S, tamiya 1/16 rc full option tiger 1 tank,
