For us that played with Legos when we were kids and still have a box of them on the shelve at home, in the garage or at work, here is a neat one that I thought might be fun to own: LEGO Technic Street Bike, $49.99 http://www.etoys.com/genProduct.html/PID/4535239/ctid/17/INstock/Y/D/ There is a coupon code for $5 off $40 or more with code: VISA46ET. It says you must use your visa but I didn't and still got the discount.
So who thinks they can modify it to have the under slung exhaust and make it look more like a XB? |

I got one FOR MY SON last year (of course you did). I...err we had great fun building it, it's a mixture of VFR800 and 999 and probably has more parts than either of them. The engine turns, has it's own con-rods and rotates the rear wheel via a UJ. Even the rear suspension is adjustable. |

That twin is sweet. I still build a thing or two with my 11 y/o stepson. He gets jealous of my technically superior designs. I have planes with variable-geometry wings, forward swept wings and canards, internal weapons bays, a stealth bomber, and an armored vehicle with fully articulated cannons. Beat that sucka! working is the most grown-up thing I've ever done in life...that's enough for me |

I ordered the Technique bike. Discount code not working anymore. Thanks for the post though. I'm looking forward to getting my new toy...I mean, I'm looking forward to helping my nephew with his new toy. |

Glitch, No, I got the one that T9r posted. But, the one 1313 posted may be made from that kit. I'll have to look at the box mine came in. gbr |

The wheels look like ones from this kit #8417. The person built their own bike it looks like, it can be done!
