Im a passionate motorcyclist and ride restore and do slightly silly things with bikes most of the time, my current build is something called a yamaha ysr, but iv ditched the original air cooled 50cc engine and am putting an lc 125 engine in, you will have to google a ysr to understand why this is a little bit silly! But ill try and get pics up soon, some info on the build is on diffrentstrokers website a good site if you like two stroke bikes

Saw this Airfix-style kit whilst looking for xmas pressies for my son and couldn't help myself! I know it's not a Lude but I'd love an R32 GT-R and this is about as close as i'm getting at the moment!

Mostly painted and assembled - test fit with no glass, lights etc;

I know!
Finished;

Just googled the ysr - they're really cute! Reminds me a bit of an FZR that's been in the hot wash. LC125 lump is a great (if slightly nuts) idea.

Thanks.

I used to do a loads of Airfix planes when I was a kid, moved onto Games Workshop stuff (their HQ is in Nottingham) into my teens then girls happened

so I got into actual cars as apparently a room full of painstakingly converted and painted models is not impressive to the opposite sex!
Sold most of it on eBay a few years back but still got these on the side.

I don't think so, why would something like Warhammer have fleur-de-lis all over it? If they can think up a whole role playing universe I think they would have some original insignias.
