Title: R/C Ducati with leaning rider Post by: faolan01 on September 29, 2009, 09:19:34 AM I came across this today and thought I'd share it. I did a quick forum search and didn't see a previous post, so hopefully it's not a derby ;)

But then theirs has... ...2 tiny wheels sticking out from the side fairings? (Even though that's only to prevent crash damage, it's pretty ironic.) Still pretty effing cool though b/c of the rider shifting back and forth.

The front fork is free and it does indeed steer by leaning. A lot of fun, actually.
