I just found a new mega blok set that is along the lines of what I wish LEGO
would make.

http://www.megabloks.com//html/Micro/Probuilder/9719.htm

Of course, it looks cheap, the colors stink, there isn't the level of detail
I would expect from a Model Team set or want in a Technic set, but its a
step in the right direction.

That set doesn't look too different from the old Mag Wheel Master
http://guide.lugnet.com/set/8417
Though a model team motorcycle would be something Lego hasn't done before.

It looks more like <set:8422> than 8417.

On the other hand, it has "real-working rear suspension", but no gears,
chains, engines, etc. -- mechanisms that make the Technic 8417 and 8422 so
enjoyable. In terms of functionality, this Megabloks set is about on a par
with <set:8251>. :-)

Looks like the front forks don't turn either, but I may be wrong.
