I just have to put it together

 

A small one is better than none

Thing is legit and even product licensed by ducati.

I might need a microscope to put the decals on it it's in a billion peices and I'm not sure I have the patience to put it together. Can I just have a real one

 

Does that mean the stupid wings can be left off? It might be the best looking bike ever without them.

 

Yep...but there appears to be 2 holes that may be an issue on both sides

 

Damn, that looks intricate, I don’t think I’d have the patience. I remember getting those Indycar models as a kid and being all excited and then completely fucking them up because I tried to rush everything.

 

it's also how Lego also does it with all the licensing, etc. Ferraris are tough because all the parts are usually red

 

Could always set it on fire....

 

Hmmmm

Spends months painting, gluing and assembly then he sets it on fire

My wife would NOT be amused nope nope and my chances of a real bike would nada nilch no way afterwards.

 

Pre-assembly fire in the paddock....

Kids and their new fangled toys with wings on them ... real men have real toys ... and yes, I own a REAL RZV500R as well!

 

You could add simulated fire for more authenticity:

 

I have the RC213V version. Haven't even tried to put it together. Watched the how to video on YouTube and got scared.

 

This guy went all out impressive build. I did notice he went with his own look (titanium nitride fork coating)

 

somethings are best left in the box

 

Said no one ever

 

This post got me interested.... I ordered a Tamiya Desmosedici kit and tools, brushes, etc.

 

I like the idea of removing the mirrors and making it look like a track bike in his koto model hmmmmm

Let me know what kit you get motion...this looks like one project for the books
