Yeah, its well built though. Roughly 5+ kgs. I saw it had working front and rear suspension, throttle twist working etc.
I will stick with Maisto.
Have my eyes set on their 1:6 Motogp models.

Well, here they come. Like it or not, they're coming and they're getting better and better. Once more dealerships open up or service centres get appointed, and people start getting confidence in the ability to buy parts for 10 year old bikes, it's game over. And no amount of "ehrmahgehrd Chinese bikes are gross ewwww" by the usual luddites and idiots on social media will stop them.
