14121,Tamiya,1/12 Honda NSR 500 *84

During the 1983 World Grand Prix season, Honda took the championship with the NS500 but it was clear that
the power from the 2-stroke V3 engine would be insufficient for the next season. This led Honda to create the
NSR500, which was powered by a more powerful V4 engine. It also featured a unique aluminum frame to house
the engine and a radical layout in which the expansion chambers and the fuel tank were positioned above and
below the engine respectively. The 1984 season was challenging but the following season saw the NSR500
demonstrate its excellent performance to win the championship.
