Upgrade your 1/12 YZF-R1M with accurate front fork detailing

For dedicated model builders and collectors, the Tamiya 12684 Front Fork Set lets you replace basic kit parts with higher-fidelity components to boost the realism of your 1/12 Yamaha YZF-R1M replica. This detail-up set is made to give a noticeably more authentic look to the model's front end.

True-to-scale metal and plastic parts

The kit contains a mix of metal and plastic pieces that mimic the YZF-R1M fork assembly. Individual items like inner and outer tubes, connectors and end caps are supplied to create a complete upgrade. Metal bits such as the reservoir tank and outer tubes are paired with gold-coloured fork tops for a refined appearance.

Fine-tuned visual accuracy

A highlight is the damper spring, finished in a realistic yellow paint that stands out versus the standard black part in the kit. This small but effective detail helps the model read closer to the real motorcycle at a glance.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/12
  • Material: Metal and plastic
  • Includes: inner and outer tubes, connectors, end caps
  • Painted damper spring
Yes. The set is designed to replace the front fork components of the standard 1/12 Tamiya YZF-R1M kit without major modification. Light trimming may be needed during installation for the cleanest fit.
The damper spring arrives pre-painted in yellow. Other metal and plastic parts may require touch-up or finishing to match your model's chosen look or to blend with kit surfaces.
Basic modelling tools such as precision cutters, fine files, cyanoacrylate or plastic cement and a set of small screwdrivers are useful. If metal parts need trimming, a hobby saw and fine sandpaper help achieve a neat finish.
