Hasegawa 21505 - 1/12 Suzuki GT380 B (1972) BK-5 Model Kit - Classic Three-Cylinder Replica  [HA-21505]

1/12 Scale GT380 B - Detailed Project for Model Builders

This Hasegawa kit presents a faithful 1/12 scale interpretation of the Suzuki GT380 B from 1972, offering rich detail that appeals to collectors and experienced modellers. The kit highlights the bike's distinctive three-cylinder profile and period styling while remaining a hands-on build for hobbyists who enjoy precise assembly.

Period Accuracy and Mechanical Detail

The Suzuki GT380 was notable in its era for a two-stroke, air-cooled three-cylinder engine that balanced performance and character. This kit mirrors that engineering focus with moulded parts that reflect the real machine's layout and mechanical features. Builders will appreciate components that echo the original design and the bike's dynamic silhouette.

Assembly and Modelling Notes

The Hasegawa 1/12 Suzuki GT380 B kit includes finely cast plastic pieces that require careful fitment and finishing. It is best suited to modellers with some experience who can handle delicate parts and finish work. When completed, the model displays signature elements like the triple exhausts and smooth fuel tank lines.

Showcase and Collection Appeal

Finished, this model makes a strong display piece that complements other vintage motorcycle kits. Its accurate proportions and detailing help it sit well alongside similar scale classics, offering a compact but striking representation of the GT380's legacy.
