Tamiya 16039 1/6 Scale Harley-Davidson FXE1200 Super Glide Build Kit  [16039]

Tamiya 16039 recreates the 1975 Harley-Davidson FXE1200 in 1/6 scale

The Tamiya 16039 kit captures the spirit of the 1975 Harley-Davidson FXE1200 Super Glide at 1/6 scale. Recognised as a forerunner of factory choppers, the original set the template for sporty touring bikes, and this model reflects that heritage with careful attention to the shovel head styling and the air-cooled V-twin layout.

Scale accuracy and assembly detail

The assembly kit gives a hands-on building experience with faithfully modelled engine and frame components. It includes front and rear suspension that function with coil springs to simulate real movement. Wire-spoke wheels and plated elements bring visual authenticity, while the semi-pneumatic rubber tires show a tread pattern close to the original.

Presentation and finishing touches

The kit supplies clear components for the instrument cluster and a sheet of decals for period-correct graphics. The side stand is built to operate and includes a return spring for realistic behaviour. This model makes a detailed display piece for enthusiasts who appreciate mechanical accuracy.
