Thanx! About those tyres: the real bike has a much wider rear tyre. The main reason is that the rear tyre looked really out of place in front and vice versa. By the way: see 8417, also uses a different front tyre... There aren't any really good (...) (24 years ago, 28-Oct-00, to lugnet.build)

Great model, Ronald! I'm cuious about one aspact of the bike-the use of two different tire types. Is this for stability? Other than that single gripe, I love it! The exhaust pipes are beautifully done, and the little touches like the guages on the (...) (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.build)

Hey guys, please have a look at my latest (and one of the first since the dark ages) MOC. I tried to make a Honda GoldWing (check my homepage at (URL) to see why) at the scale of the LEGOland parks, so 1:20-ish. It's at (URL) and on my homepage. Oh, (...) (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.build)
