Plastic toy engine

I realize that this a reach for the, "engine" category, but I had to share this.
My neighbors are moving away- and they have my 3 year old a box of plastic replica motorcycles- and this was one of them.
I was so proud to my son playing with the Japanese engine with 4 cylinders. Try finding this in a store today!

Cool!

Have a buddy with a GS850G who would trade it for a KZ1000P. Looks like there is hope for a police version of his bike. He just needs to loose a few pounds.

There's a exact replica of a Z1 on another site I belong to. $1600. A little out of my range. I'll post a pic later.

Oh I got this though.

Yeah, looks like you can hop on it, turn the key and ride. 1/6 scale. Amazing.

When i was younger, I use to collect these models called "gundam". Fully articulating/detailed models that you had to assemble. That pic of the bike in pieces reminds me of that. Comes with extra parts to choose from and such. Makes me wanna find and get one.(gotta finish my scaled one first) Just make sure to share with your kid :P jk..good find!

If you yourself are building an older bike and can see it through till you're riding it, that's proof you have patience.

Those early gs/gsx series bikes are easily some of the best looking bikes of that time period (aside from kz/z1 of course) I didnt know they made them in toy form otherwise I would have stopped picking up the full size strays
my bikes; 80kz1000(project), 77 gl1000, 74 h2 (project)
Past; 78 kz1000, 83 kz550

hello people; I'm new. I saw post title and there use to be a CB750 plastic engine model that had all the moving parts. I thought that was cool. Also any of you Kaw heads see the you tube stuff on seriously talented individuals that make working engine models from scratch? It's amazing. I saw a Panhead, V8's and I think there's a V12 model out there.
The stuff that that can be done and I'm sweating over a wire harness.
