About product

Chain set 1:12 Chain Set 8: NSR250 from Top Studio

This item is not a kit but an accessory to a model of a motorcycle in 1:12 scale. It addresses the final drive, that is, the drive chain running from the front sprocket to the rear sprocket, and it is cut for the racing Honda NSR250, a two-stroke machine of the 250 cc class of road racing.

What the set changes on the model

A quarter-liter racing machine has a noticeably more slender final drive than liter-class machines, and it is precisely on it that the simplification of a plastic part shows most. A molded chain has blanked-off gaps between the links and coarser rollers, which in 1:12 scale come across as oversized. A replacement chain of individual links keeps the correct pitch, wraps around the sprocket and leaves a view through to the swingarm between its runs. The difference is discernible mainly in profile, the view from which a model is most often photographed and displayed.

Installation tips

Start dry: fit the chain onto both sprockets and check whether the length is right. It is tuned by the number of links, not by force. Try the rear sprocket on the hub beforehand, so that the chain runs in one plane, as a chain out of line is visible on a finished model at once and cannot be put right afterward. Fit the chain only once the swingarm is finished and the rear wheel is in place. Bond with super glue in a minimal amount, applied with the tip of a pin. Once it is done, leave the upper run with a slight sag and take the surface down with a dark shade with a little gloss; clean silver metal looks out of place on a model.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of racing quarter-liter machines in 1:12 scale
  • Modelers who are finishing the tail and the swingarm down to the detail
  • Those who are bothered by a coarse molded chain on a model
  • More experienced modelers, as assembling the chain calls for tweezers and time

The set is an accessory to a model, not a kit in its own right. It is supplied unassembled and unpainted; glue, paints and the base model are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. It is an accessory which replaces the drive chain on a model in 1:12. The model itself is not part of the package.

A racing quarter-liter machine has a more slender final drive than liter-class machines, so the coarseness of a molded plastic chain shows most on it.

By adding or removing links during a dry test. Never tighten the chain by force, as it would be deformed and would stop seating into the teeth of the sprocket.

Darker and less glossy than bare metal. Lubricant and dust cling to a real chain, and a purely silver surface looks lifeless on a model.
