Motorcycle kit is pretty decent. Plastic is a bit soft which means care needs to be taken when removing pieces from sprue. Instructions could be a bit clearer but they are workable. Besides, this is not first time I've build this motorcycle so I've invested in book that covers it in great detail so I can better see how pieces fit together. Building it is simple enough and allows you to keep various sections (engine, chassis, wheels, seat and bags) separate which makes for easier and more accurate painting.
