This Italeri 1/9 scale representation of the Cagiva Elephant 850 recreates the tough rally machine that tackled the Paris-Dakar in 1987. Built to show the bike's rugged lines and functional components, this kit gives hobbyists a chance to assemble a historically significant adventure motorcycle with accurate parts and finish.
The Cagiva Elephant 850 earned its reputation in 1987 by handling severe desert stages and long endurance runs. The real bike featured a strong engine layout and long-travel suspension; the Italeri kit mirrors those visual cues so model builders can appreciate the rally engineering on display.
Designed for modellers with prior kit experience, this Italeri set contains multiple small parts including rubber components, screws, springs and tubes that require careful fitting. A full colour instruction sheet is provided to guide each assembly step and paint placement for an authentic finish.
At 1/9 scale the finished Cagiva Elephant 850 makes a bold display item. Detail is large enough to show engine, frame and suspension features clearly, making it a favourite for shelf presentation or as the focal point in a rally bike collection.
