Trakk,

Thanks for your interest! I've been taking my time to unfold and create instructions for the white, non-textured model. I'm just about done. I plan to release in a day or two and start building it. PDFs and build pics to come. . .

Try Rhino for free. You can download and save it 25 times before it is disabled, but still functional, you just can't save anything. If you can make a circle, you can do NURBS, and judging by your work, it would be a breeze for you.

Alright, I'll give it a try. I'd better start saving for the full version...:D

So you're almost done unfolding...WOW that was quick I've been drooling over your renderings for months now! I've never seen any motorcycle in the quality of the Yamaha bikes and I've built most of them. Yours will be fresh and since it's a custom....it would be even more fun to build...Can't wait to see your build pics and better yet, to have a go myself. Good luck

Folks, the white model is now ready! :D. Its certainly not perfect but hopefully it will help to uncover problems and issues I can fix in the final one.

Thanks in advance to anyone who chooses to attempt this relatively crude white model. Appreciate any feedback you may have.

If you want to wait for the final model, that's cool too.

Here's the download link for the white Mille Miglia.

I've never done test builds, but if it helps, I can build part of the model for you, like the engine or something. I'd prefer to build the final model but I'd like to help if I can....

Thanks, Viraj. I'll leave that for you to decide. You can build what ever strikes your fancy. I think the engine is my favorite part and probably also the most challenging due to all those danged fins. Its my first engine design so any comments will help for improving in the final version.

I'm looking for things that are too weak structurally, excessively difficult to build, not fitting properly, and the list goes on...

I already have another model on the mat but I'll have a go at this too. Already downloaded the files and I'll try building the engine. I'll let you know how I get on..hopefully
