1:5 Scale Motorcycle Building Kits for Adult Builders
1:5 scale motorcycle building kits are the flagship format for two-wheel builders. At one-fifth of real size, a two-meter superbike becomes a display model of roughly 40 cm, which leaves room for engine, frame, exhaust and suspension detail that smaller scales have to simplify. This collection brings together more than 90 brick kits built around the 1/5 scale format, designed by TGL, Guly, Panlos, CaDa, KBOX, Mould King, Keeppley and Reobrix, all in ABS bricks compatible with the major building brick systems.
Superbikes, cruisers and cyberpunk customs in 1/5 scale
The range covers every riding style: track weapons such as the V4 Racing Superbike and the H2R, naked bikes like the MT-10 and the Hyper Naked Street Bike, American cruisers including the Night Rod Special and the Custom V-Twin Muscle Cruiser, plus touring machines like the Boxer Beast 1300 Adventure. Build time scales with ambition:
- Easy, 2–5 h — Suzuki Katana 1000 and Suzuki Hayabusa by CaDa
- Intermediate, 5–10 h — V4 Racing Superbike, MT-10, American Cruiser Motorcycle
- Advanced, 10–18 h — 1260 Power Cruiser, BMW S1000RR Cyberpunk, Adventure Touring Motorcycle
Why pick the 1:5 format over 1:8
A 1:5 bike model kit is the one to build when the motorcycle is the centerpiece of the shelf. If you want several bikes side by side, the more compact kits in our motorcycle building kits range and the 1:8 scale collection fit tighter spaces. Mechanically minded builders can go further with the motorised American Motorcycle V-Twin Engine by Xinzhuan, or browse our engine building kits for standalone powertrains.

1:5 Scale Motorcycle Kits: Your Questions Answered
Still deciding on your first large-scale bike? Contact our team.
How big is a 1:5 scale motorcycle model once built?
How big is a 1:5 scale motorcycle model once built?
A 1:5 scale model is one-fifth of the real bike, so a superbike around two meters long becomes a display piece of roughly 40 cm. That size is what makes the format special: the engine block, exhaust routing, fairings and suspension can be modelled in far more detail than at 1:8 or 1:10, which is why most of our superbike flagships are built in 1/5 scale.
Which 1:5 scale motorcycle kit is best for a first build?
Which 1:5 scale motorcycle kit is best for a first build?
Start with an easy kit rated at 2–5 hours of building, such as the Suzuki Katana 1000 or the Suzuki Hayabusa by CaDa, or the Gunmetal Shark Japanese Sportbike by TQM. You get the full 1:5 display size without an 18-hour commitment. Once you are comfortable, step up to an intermediate 5–10 hour kit like the MT-10 by Tuomu or the V4 Racing Superbike by TGL.
How long does an advanced 1/5 scale superbike take to build?
How long does an advanced 1/5 scale superbike take to build?
Advanced kits in this collection are tagged at 10–18 hours of building time. That includes the H2R and Custom V-Twin Muscle Cruiser by Guly, the 1260 Power Cruiser and Adventure Touring Motorcycle by TGL, and the V4 Streetfighter Superbike by Panlos. Every kit comes with numbered bags and illustrated step-by-step instructions, so the build splits easily across several evenings.
Are there cruiser and chopper kits in 1:5 scale, not just superbikes?
Are there cruiser and chopper kits in 1:5 scale, not just superbikes?
Yes. American-style cruisers are well represented: the Night Rod Special, the Custom V-Twin Muscle Cruiser and Cyberpunk Custom Chopper by Guly, the American Cruiser Motorcycle by Mould King and the Harley Highway Road Glide Dual-Light. For more US-inspired machines across all scales, browse our American building block kits.
Do any 1:5 scale motorcycle kits have motorised or RC parts?
Do any 1:5 scale motorcycle kits have motorised or RC parts?
Most 1:5 bikes are static display models focused on detail. The exception is the American Motorcycle V-Twin Engine by Xinzhuan, a 1:5 scale motorised engine tagged as remote controlled, which lets you watch the V-twin run. For more running engines, from V8s to W16s, see our engine building kits.
