Seen this bike kit?

Found the pic at this web site which lists a bunch of bike Tamiya models. Wondering what year it was produced and where it can be found if anywhere.

Hey Scott,

After extensive digging and looking at the other models on that page as well, I am going to say that this is not a kit, but a well done conversion. It pulls in elements from several models that tamiya made. It could also be one of the lesser known brands, but since Tamiya was generally working in this scale that's what I'm concluding. If it was a kit it would have had to have been made after 1984.

Looks like a 1986 FZ 750, I used to own a '87 FZ 700. I now currently own '02 Yamaha R1. Love my Yamaha's.

Not sure I have the funds to source all the kits it would take to build that thing. Wish it was a kit though. Neat Yamaha from a time when US racing was really changing.
