TWINSET Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Available again as of November 2014 Kit No. 3023 THE MOST REALISTIC SCALE MOTORBIKES ON THE TRACK! The ultimate in scale realism! These two bikes not only lean realistically through the curves, but the rider moves from side to side at the same time! These two models are moulded for even greater scale accuracy and easier access to radio equipment and mechanical parts. The rider is made from an astounding twenty separate parts for natural movement! Fully functional suspension using sprung front forks and a sprung monoshock swing arm at the rear ensure efficient road holding. Oil filled sprung dampers can be fitted as optional uprate parts for even better handling on rougher tracks. The powerful Kyosho Le Mans DM20 motor (included) drives the rear wheel via a real chain system. (Optional ballraced motors can also be fitted for even better performance). Each kit includes two gear ratios, allowing you to match the power to the track. A comprehensive sponsor decal sheet is included for both the rider figure and the bike itself, allowing you to create a scale masterpiece that really works! Great looks and fun to drive too! Steering post swings right and left to realise the amazing S.D.S.S. effect! The relative front and rear movement causes the centre of gravity to shift and generates the bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWINSET Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 I had one of these back in 2003 and it was hard to get hold of then They're great on prepared surfaces but not much good on 'tarmac' GPM did a whole range of alu goodies for 'em too; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HYPER-BOY Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Does look good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si Coe Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I had the original back in the early '90s. Great on the right terrain, looks the business too. Always wanted another but they were a pain for spares even back in the day. With a re-re out though I'm interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deafty Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 surely the weight transfer has been tweaked by now? or is it gimmick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake1*2011 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 If this is the same one then its definatly cheap enough, or am I missing something? http://www.hksrc.com/store/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=474 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWINSET Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 Yup, that's the one although they have the model number wrong. They've changed the rider number since the original, used to be #5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
