Tamiya 1/12 Suzuki RGV-Gamma (XR89) Suzuki RGV-Gamma
The opening round of the 500cc class 1999 World Road
Race Championships was set ablaze in the heat of the Malaysian GP.
Although it was Team Honda that was said to have the advantage in the
opening race of the season, they would be denied victory by young
rider, Kenny Roberts, Jr. and the rest of the Suzuki team. New to the
Suzuki team, Roberts, Jr. secured a third place finish in the
qualifying round before burning rubber to a victory which surprised
everyone, especially Team Honda. Proving his triumph was no fluke,
Roberts, Jr. went on to win the second round too, this time on the rain
soaked course of the Japan GP. On his way to the checkered flag in
Japan, Roberts, Jr. was also successful in beating out five year
champion Honda NSR rider, Michael Doohan. The 1999 version of the
RGV-Gamma is known as the XR89. Its development centered on creating
greater overall balance to unlock its maneuverability and cornering
speed. The V-type 4-cylinder engine of XR89 model is cradled by a
lightweight, aluminum twin-tube frame. The potential of the RGV-Gamma
was more than proved by Roberts, Jr., who mounted the victory podium
eight times in 1999, securing a very respectable overall season ranking
of second place.
