As with the front tyre, the rear tyre was
a newly designed, state-of-the-art piece,
developed to deal with the speeds the
Hayabusa could achieve. It was designed
with the expertise that came from the
motorcycle racing world. The model’s tyre
is made from hollow rubber, and, together
with the wheel, it accurately replicates
the real thing.
Soften the rubber of the rear tyre by
twisting it with your hands.
Use a toothbrush to clean any dirt or
remaining dust left over from the casting
process from the surface of the tyre.
