Part 1 of the Yamaha YZR-M1

Last weekend, I started my new paper craft project. It is an YZR M1 motorcycle another product of Yamaha. The M1 is an 800cc sports bike specifically developed for racing purposes on the MotoGP series. Other specifications include a Liquid-cooled, in-line, 4-cylinder, 4-stroke with 16-valve DOHC engine which is fuel injected to ensure perfect as possible combustion process. A 6-speed cassette-type gearbox, with alternative gear ratios is also fitted to complement the power of the engine.

Coming back to the real world of mine, what I am doing right now is made from paper so there are no such specifications included. What you will just see are sheets of papers, pastes, scissors, toothpick, and other materials needed for paper crafting. So let start now what I have done so far..

The first images are the front suspension system complete with handle bars, brake levers, brake calipers and mud protector.

The next two images are the finished rear part of the M1. It includes the rear part with seats on it.

Next are the fuel tanks with Yamaha logo on both sides

The front panel which contains the removed portion of headlight including the windshield can be seen in the next array of images. The headlight is removed due to aerodynamic reasons and load reduction for faster acceleration and top speed.

For our last image the exhaust pipe is also completer. It consist of the down pipe, the muffler, pipe shield, plus the clip where the canister can be fitted snugly over the motorcycle.

The Finish Product of my YZ450fm

After months of cutting, pasting, and connecting all parts of this paper craft, it is finished at last. It is something that I can be proud that even my baby wants to play with it. So friends and not so friends (lol), may I now present to you the final judgement... hahaha...

The right side view of the finished YZ450fm motor cross.

Front view with my monitor at the background.

Rear view of the completed YZ450fm.

Front right side view with stand.

I will make a glass enclosure for this to preserve its beauty. Soon, I will now start the YZR-M1. Another Yamaha motorbike.

5th Part of the YZ450fm

At long last, the frame of my motocross YZ450fm is finally finished and ready for assembly. this one takes about 8 hours to assemble (one hour a day and about 8 days to complete).

The left side of the frame with the remote of the TV on the back.

Right side of the frame and still the TV remote at the back.. hehehehe...

Still the right side but the engine is mounted in its proper place.

Front left side of the frame including the engine.

Soon, I will post the finish product as it ready for assembly and just waiting for me to have time. May be a week or two, my first paper craft will soon be finished and with the way it looks now, I am sure that I will be very satisfied with its outcome.

4th Part of the YZ450fm

After spending days of cutting, folding, and pasting, i finally finished the most important part of the motorcycle - the engine. The powerhouse is complete with kick start, gear shifter, block, cylinder head, engine covers, and even the sprocket cover.

Left side of the engine where the gear shifter is located.

Right side of the powerhouse where you can see the kick start and the two cylinders.

Here is the front side view where the exhaust pipe should be located.

The finish product is coming near. Just wait and see what would it be like as a whole. Next post will be the frame of the motorcycle...

3rd Part of the YZ450fm

After days of serious paper crafting, I finally finished another part of my Yamaha YZ450fm motorcycle.


This is the radiator which is detailed including fins and connecting body. A little more time and i will soon finish the mono shock and the exhaust canister... It is tiring to do such small crafts but I think I will surely love to see if it is finished...

2nd Part of the YZ450FM

Now, here is the 2nd part of the Yamaha YZ450FM motorcoss paper craft. It cost me 1 week to assemble this little thing.


This is the rear wheel with rear disk brake assembly including sprocket and chain set. I forgot the name of the part that holds the rear wheel.

Next, i will soon post the finished suspension system and if time permits, I will include the radiator and the pipe assembly.

1st Part of the YZ450FM

After weeks of sitting my butt in the chair and enjoying the moments by cutting papers and pasting all the pieces, I have finally completed one, I mean two parts of this motorcycle.


This is the front steering wheel fitted with front wheel. I didn't get its dimension but looking at the picture, you can see that it is big enough to be displayed in a shelf or anywhere. This is complete with front disc brakes, guards, and even the fluid brake reservoir.



The image shown above is the bike stand. Since the YZ450FM is a dirt bike, putting a center stand is not necessary due to its characteristic. So if you want to do something with this bike, you will need this. But in this paper craft, the stand will be used as a means to display the bike.

Next, i will soon post the finished rear assembly with rear wheel.

My new hobby - paper craft

Making paper planes are among the paper crafts during childhood years. However, when you grow old, paper crafts are getting more complicated, should need skilled hands, and of course better concentration to do the get the pieces correctly. Paper craft, as it name implies, is an art, models, or toys that are constructed from paper materials. Normally done for hobby, it also started to gain revenue to professional craftsman and hobby shops.
Paper crafts are among the most popular hobbies these days. And because of its popularity, I also have engaged in this kind of art. Now, I’m starting to build a Yamaha YZ450fm which I got in the Yamaha website. I will post here the progress of my project. However, it will take time to finish the project as I don’t have the free time to do the work often.

So stay tuned guys and I will soon post finished projects.
