| Yamaha Salient scooter This model was built during the 11th annual 24 hour build in January 2017. It was a pretty simple build, although the kit isn't the greatest: - there are no clear parts for any of the lights or front windscreen, there are just chrome plated parts that can be painted with clear orange and red - the left side of the front fork was a 'short shot' of styrene. Didn't notice until final assembly. There are scooter models with single sided forks, so this could have been the design. - the body/frame joint where the floorboard meets the front frame is a very weak joint. Epoxy was used to join the two parts. Base Kit(s): Imai Yamaha Salient scooter (kit number B-2302) Finished: Feb 2015 Modifications/Additions: - out of the box - Bare Metal Foil for badges, seat trim and lower bodywork and front fender - paint is Tamiya semi-gloss black acrylic and Tamiya bright red lacquer on the bodywork Click on Thumbnail to see detailed image.
