The Hasegawa 21743 Yamaha TZR250 (2AW) "New Yamaha Black" in 1/12 scale is a faithfully reproduced plastic model kit, dedicated to motorcycle enthusiasts and admirers of Japanese automotive engineering from the 1980s. The Yamaha TZR250 (2AW) motorcycle, the main character of this kit, is one of the most iconic sports machines of its era, created for fans of dynamic riding and amateur racing—the first version appeared in 1986 and quickly won the hearts of users in Japan and Europe.

The Yamaha TZR250 (2AW) represented a new generation of 250cc class two-stroke sport motorcycles. Designed with precise handling and low weight in mind, it featured full fairings, a compact frame, and innovative technology, often previously seen only in professional racing constructions. Upon its debut, it was used on race tracks as well as city streets by speed enthusiasts. Its production and main use period coincided with the 1980s and 1990s, the era of the "Cold War" and Japan’s automotive technology boom.

The Hasegawa model is made of high-quality plastic, ensuring extremely accurate detailing—from the characteristic headlight, through the dynamically styled fuel tank, to the intricately reconstructed two-cylinder inline engine. Special black decals and carefully reproduced bodywork components make the motorcycle appear exceptionally realistic in any model collection. The kit does not include glue or paints, giving you full control over the final finish—we recommend using dedicated model paints for the best results.
