Kyosho Honda NSR500 1991 Hanging On RC Motorcycle 1/8 Kit
13-Joint Rider Figure Leans Into Corners
SDSS Steering System for Full Banking Action
Realistic Chain Drive System With Mini Chain
Includes Le Mans DM20 Brushed Motor
A Rewarding Build for All Skill Levels
Since its 1992 release, the Kyosho Hang-On Racer has remained a popular and unique part of the RC world. This 1/8 scale kit models the legendary 1991 Honda NSR500 works machine. It's a satisfying project that is engaging to build, beautiful to display, and exciting to run. The core of its appeal is the stable driving performance provided by the SDSS (Semi-Direct Steering System). This innovative system allows the bike to run independently and achieve deep, realistic banking angles in corners, just like a real GP bike.
The realism is enhanced by the articulated rider figure, which features 13 joints and actively "hangs on" by leaning its body into every turn. The commitment to scale detail is visible everywhere, from the body cowl and inverted front fork suspension to the brake discs, calipers, and asymmetrical swing arm. A true-to-scale chain drive system, using a mini chain and sprocket, delivers power from the included Le Mans DM20 motor. Despite these intricate details, the kit features a small parts count, making it an approachable assembly for RC beginners while still satisfying veteran builders.
