(PICS) Not too many 1/18 motorcycles are as well detailed as these two.....
I can't call myself a motorcycle guy, but I do appreciate detail and finish when I see it. These two 1/18 motorcycles really caught my eye quite a few years ago.
The first one is Century Dragon's 1/18 Chang Jiang 750: essentially a 1938 BMW R71 that was first appropriated by the Russians during WW2 and later the tooling and info given to the Chinese in the late '50s.
