Wouldn't be surprised if a few people aren't waiting for the new skins. I'm personally holding off until the Stoner model is released. Actually it was hard to choose between the Repsol models. The Pedrosa one comes with a 1:1 scale Dani. He's just disappeared from the MotoGp podiums. My theory is Kyosho has acidentally packed the real one in one of the boxes - so every Pedrosa model comes with a chance of getting a real Dani.... maybe
Dani done well this season brought the pressure to jorge, if dani never got side swiped by hecta he was insight for that no 1 plate Last round coming would of been decider between who be champion jorge or dani. Think i'll grab casey bike brighter to see apexing corner Lost the love towards the ducuti paint scheme looks tacky for some reason. When lexan,white body kits hit shelfs fancy a Suzuki rep either crescent rizzla or relentless
or
Gresini honda super sic'
this season duke scheme
i'm hoping they're gonna be pretty soon, anyway after watching the final round of the motogp from valencia yesterday i was bored and i still got this monster energy bug so i set about my bike, just got it finished before bed time ...
bye bye..
kept it nice and simple and stayed with a matt finish.
the seat unit was bothering me, in Yamaha mode with a painted seat it looked good but in matt black home paintjob mode it looked totaly unfinished so i just cut a seat from some black card stock and held in place with a dab of double sided tape....not brilliant but i can't think of anything else thin enough that will let the riders 'poop' go through the hole in the seat unit and hold him on the machine...
I forgot to mention something about the setup. The stock suspension settings are way too stiff -- loosen up the fork screws a couple of turns, as well as the rear spring pre-load screw. For quicker turn-in, remove the two brake discs from the front wheel; they are cast aluminum and help with stability, but at the expense of transition speed.
Kyosho is also coming out with optional steering servo horns with different wire sizes for steering tuning. I'm going to start experimenting with thicker wires next week on my own replacement horns.
Actually the front stock disks are Steel. I CNC machined new ones from 6061-t6 alloy.
The are scalloped and ventilated like real ones . Mine are much lighter.

I'm thinking about picking up a couple of these fantastic little bikes and I had 2 questions. 1 do you glue the tires on. 2 when is the Casey stoner slated for release? Thanks in advance for any answers and I can't wait to try these out
