The Aoshima 04287 Kawasaki GPZ900R NINJA 02 model in 1/12 scale is a unique replica of one of the most iconic sports motorcycles of the 20th century. The GPZ900R, more widely known as the Ninja, debuted in 1984 and marked a breakthrough in the history of road motorcycles as the world's first mass-produced motorcycle equipped with a 908 cc liquid-cooled four-cylinder engine and DOHC. This model was produced by Kawasaki and was intensively used mainly in Japan, the USA, and Western European countries. It became famous, among other things, thanks to the movie "Top Gun" as the motorcycle ridden by Tom Cruise's character.

The production and use period of this motorcycle spans 1984-2003, which corresponds to the era of the "Cold War" and the beginning of modern times. The GPZ900R revolutionized sport road motorcycles, setting new standards in performance and handling. Its performance and unique styling make it regarded as the precursor of modern NINJA series motorcycles.
