The Tamiya 1/12 Ducati 888 Superbike (14063) reproduces the Ducati 888 — the bike that dominated World Superbike Championship racing in the early 1990s, winning back-to-back titles with Raymond Roche in 1990 and Doug Polen in 1991 and 1992. The 888's 90° L-twin Desmoquattro engine with desmodromic valve actuation produced exceptional mid-range power, while the nimble Ducati chassis gave it a handling advantage that the Japanese four-cylinder opposition struggled to match.
A classic Tamiya 1/12 kit capturing one of the most successful superbike racers of the 1990s.
