LIMITED PRODUCTION
Tamiya welcomes an updated re-issue of Item 14037 1/12 Yamaha RZV500R (sold in 2011 last time) with a newly-added B5-size double-sided pamphlet with color photos of the full-size bike for painting reference and updated instruction manuals.
The Yamaha RZV500R was announced at the Tokyo Motor Show 1983 with specs that basically made it equivalent to the road racer YZR500. Inheriting its lightweight, compact design from the YZR, the RZV featured a 500cc 2-stroke water-cooled V4 engine capable of 64hp and 230km/h top speed, which provided performance on the level of a liter-class motorcycle. The RZV500R opened up a new era of 2-stroke sports bikes and was invested with Yamahas significant know-how of both 2-stroke engines and racing.
