La Mille Maglia Porsche Hardcore motorcycle design 1/6 scale

[Toutenkarton]

Hi all,

I haven't built anything for a while due to minor health and motivational issues.But here's my new build, which isn't sci-fi for once: the "Mille Maglia," a motorcycle designed by Marcus Walz for the original and by Louis "Loudog" Lopez for the paper model.

Here is the photo of the motorcycle (the real one)


and what it should look like when finished



The assembly instructions are spread over 65 pages and the construction pages over 24 printed in 200g/m2.

A look at the sheets

And now the assembly begins, the gearbox







Different parts that will make up the engine

That looks like it is going to be a very intersting projest. You are off to a great start. Everything looks clean, clear and crisp.
I am looking forward to seeing how this project turns out.

Damn! Great start!

Looking at the cycle I see where Tron got its inspiration.

Thank you for your comments.
The rest of the parts for the engine, the air filter



Building the filter, in pink, was a challenge, I almost tore my hair out trying to get it to fit into its housing
At the end, I used a linen thread and wrapped it a few times, tightening it little by little.
I continue with the 2 exhausts



The first part of the cylinders

The start of the installation of the fins

These pieces take a long time to shape. The fins are each made of two parts, glued together and then individually placed in place, making about 100 pieces.
It's a piece of cake... See you tomorrow for the rest.
