Note "Little Loris'" body position and movement during cornering...

I know the feeling. I used to have an R/C model of Wayne Gardiner on his Honda that I used to play around with. Unlike the Capirossi figure on the Nikko Ducati, Wayne was completely stationary (except in a crash when he'd fall off).

That's another thing... it doesn't hurt NEARLY as much (physically OR financially) when you crash one of these things compared to crashing a real motorcycle...

but it CAN be almost as expensive!
I have a couple of different RC vehicles, I crashed my bike into a curb once, demolished the whole front end, it cost almost $100 to replace. I do have oil filled suspension on this bike.
needless to say, it mellowed out my "riding" style in the parking lots, LOL

Check this bike out...

There's a killer vid here, too:

I used to own a 1/8 scale 4WD nitro monster truck. I spent more time ordering parts and fixing it than actually using it...though it was the funnest R/C vehicle I ever owned. Keeping the R/C's going (I also had a 1/10 scale nitro Formula 1 at the time) cost as much as maintaining a real vehicle so I decided to sell them.
