Big bike anyone?

[inlinefour]

I had a friend send me the weblink to this website http://www.leonhardtweb.de/en/gunbus/design.htm
and Im really glad that he did. I noticed that although its road legal, none of the pictures showed it being ridden.

Ive got a new sportsbike that I need to take out of the box and start using, check out the last pic and yes it does lean over when cournering. Now that the section is sorted and the lawn is growing, grass is a pain in the arse to grow! Although me running the monster truck over it at full speed with dirt roosters out the back wont help. :Oops:

Big HI to everyone, hope you all are doing well and enjoying the riding. Im back into the garage tinkering. Instead of motorcycles its now remote control vehicles. Some of those things are quite collectable and although Ive made some $$$ wheeling n dealing, Ive just ended up spending it all on my favourites. They are worse than bikes, there is allways another hop up (upgrade), that just has to go on it.

I payed about $330 for it on trade me about a month ago. I have not had the chance to use it yet as Ive been restoring old Tamiyas and a Team Associated RC10. Im also building the ultimate 1/10 brushless buggy and have an insane lipo to add to the finished thing. Should be good for 100kph at least and will get there quicker than any motocycle or nitro. There are also alot of hop ups I need to get for the bike (its called a Venom GPV-1) and fit before I start using it.

No sign of a decent set of oggy knobs on it too. The centre stand looks like a 2 person job, but there is no pillion seat .....

Maybe, but there are switches on the hand controller/pistol grip that reverses the operation of the steering servo, effectively changing the operation of the bike in relation to what your doing with the pistol grip. Someone came around home that I dont think much of and was wanting a go with the monster truck and hinting about the largescale Baja truck. I reversed the steering as I handed him the pistol grip and then sniggered at his inability control it. I was handed it back fairly quickly and of course, after discretely flicking the switch again, could control the truck with ease.

As for that big bike in the pictures, Ive come to the conclusion that its not been built to ride. :argh:

Damn! look at the location and lack of protection on the chains on that monstrosity!! It'd eat bits of riding gear for breakfast.

Ah - but maybe the bike is standard size and the people are really small. That would be handy - you could keep her in your backpack or under your pillow.

We've been talking aboutn the Venom and other rc bikes on this thread. It looks possible that some may ending up getting together to race.
