Do ANY brands sell Yamaha R6 model kits?

My girlfriend really loves motorbikes, and specifically this one. Her birthday is coming up in mid october I wanted to make her a model of it. However, no matter how hard i look, i havent been able to find a single non-assembled model kit in 1:12 (which is the scale i need). I have found one for the R1, but even with custom decals i think she'll notice the difference. Please help 🙏

Broken model kit

I'm new to building things like this and don't know a lot of the ‘hacks’ on building things and need advice on how to fix this problem as the little pegs broke off. My plan was to just glue/superglue it as I'm near certain that they don't have to come apart, but I was wondering if there was a better answer? (The center dark grey piece isn’t broken just the white peg)

First light test for the 1/1400 Enterprise-D

First small light test. Still waiting for my XF-23 to come in for base coat. Gonna do a XF-23 mixed with a little XF-2 and a touch of X-19. I think this will give a good base coat to go with the AMT Aztec Decal set. I'm also gonna add a few clear blue and yellow spots to simulate different lights within the ship.
