This 1/8 scale electric-powered motorcycle is not just about looks; it embodies the spirit of real-world racing with its innovative mechanics and design.
The Art of Realism: Leaning and Steering Dynamics
What sets this model apart is its ability to replicate the natural movement of a real motorcycle. The rider figure, crafted from twenty separate parts, moves fluidly from side to side, enhancing the bike's lean into curves. This dynamic steering system, known as S.D.S.S., shifts the center of gravity, creating authentic turning force that mirrors real-life racing bikes.
Performance and Customization at Its Core
Equipped with the robust Kyosho Le Mans DM20 motor, this model delivers impressive power to the rear wheel through a genuine chain drive system. For those looking to push the limits, optional ballraced motors can be installed for enhanced performance. Additionally, the kit includes two gear ratios, allowing customization to suit different track conditions.
Innovative Design for Easy Maintenance
The open frame design not only provides structural integrity but also allows for efficient cooling and easy access to essential components like the battery and motor. This ease of maintenance ensures that you spend more time on the track and less time in the workshop.
