No joke, I really am building one. Waiting for Ferrari parts so I thought I'd do something completely out of character.
This is the kit:
It's pretty straightforward, would make a good practice kit before attempting the Tamiya type bike kits. A couple of sub assemblies:
Other than paint I was going OOB on this, I've got this far:
I'm debating whether to go full dresser like the box cover or maybe a stripped down lean and mean version. It's also an experiment on the paint colour that may or may not work out.

Good looking progress so far Paul and it's building up very well for being OOB.

I have a couple of bike kits in the stash but haven't built any yet. Would like to one of these days.
I would vote lean and mean but either way I'm sure it will turn out great.

Painted the headlight pod to match, mounted the turn signals on it, ditched the light bar and used it for the rear lights. Ditched the cowl, luggage bin, saddle bags, all the framework, all the chrome trim, converted to single exhaust.
All done.
