The legend of King Kenny is a 1978 champion model that returns to the popular R/C bike that started from this machine.

The hang on racer series of Kyosho 1/8 scale electric R/C bikes are made with S.D.S. (semi-direct steering system) that allows for complete freestanding operation.
Since its launch in 1992, a new companion has been joined to this longtime beloved hang-on racer!
This model is the Yamaha YZR500, when Kenny Roberts won his first title in the 1978 WGP (World Road Race Championship) 500cc class.
Roberts debuted in the 500cc class of the year, and when it became a champion in the first year, he achieved three consecutive champions until 1980.
The Yamaha YZR500 is the first model of the hang on racer series, but in the production we have done extensive research on the current 1978 real car to accurately reproduce the forms.
In addition, previously the front suspension of the Hang-On Racer series also employs an inverted type shock absorber with a cylinder at the top, but the YZR500 has been changed to the upright model just like the real vehicle, providing increased realism and maneuverability.
The car body is renowned for its high level of perfection, and the steering and rider doll interlocking system combines a highly scale cornering posture and maneuverability.
Decorated with a striking debut, the Hungon Racer YAHAMA YZR500 1978 is an attractive kit for fans of yesteryear.
