Hasegawa 21731 - 1/12 Kawasaki 500-SS/MACH III (H1 1970 Late Version) Scale Overview

The Hasegawa 1/12 scale rendition of the Kawasaki 500-SS/MACH III (H1 1970 Late Version) captures the look and engineering cues of a landmark 1970s roadster. Renowned for its punchy two-stroke triple and raw road presence, the real Kawasaki 500-SS is reflected here in a model that highlights period details and silhouette.

Detailing and Finish

This kit contains finely moulded components that mirror the triple-cylinder engine layout and streamlined body panels. Thoughtful touches like chrome-style parts and printed decals bring authenticity to the build and make the finished model a convincing display piece for motorcycle fans.

Assembly Notes for Builders

Assembly is aimed at modellers with some prior experience, as the kit contains many small parts that require careful handling. Paints and adhesives are not provided, giving builders the freedom to choose finishes and personalise the bike to period-correct or customised schemes.

This kit is best tackled by hobbyists who have built a few scale models before, due to the number of small engine and frame parts. Beginners can attempt it if they proceed slowly and use steady tools.
Enamel or acrylic model paints in gloss and semi-gloss are ideal for recreating the original 1970s lacquer look. Use primer on plastic parts for best adhesion before applying colour.
Yes, many builders add photo-etched parts, metal chains or braided cables to lift realism. Check fitment against the Hasegawa components before committing to mods.
