Hey guys. I'm looking for a reliable Nitro bike RTR for UNDER $400. If i have too, i will spend $500, but i really cant afford that much. Thanks so much guys.

PS: What will i need for this except for fuel? And it this bike (engine drivetrain electronics) reliable and easy to work on and run? Thanks

That's the only RTR that I know of. If you only want to car park bash it'll be fine and is very good value for a beginner.

From the ones that I've seen the chain is a bit too tight out of the box and watch for screws that need threadlocking such as the axle bolts.
Change the plug to an OS#3,the supplied plug doesn't seem to be very good.

How do i adjust the chain out of the box? And i will change the plug. Oh, and what wheels and tires do you recommend (any links)?
And do i need a starter or do they give you a starter? Thanks guys

And a os#3 plug will work well in 60 degree weather with %20 fuel? This is it right?

It is the first production 5th scale and it is made in Italy and is expensive.

TTn means Thunder Tiger nitro. Nuova Faor is a different company than Thunder Tiger but they also make nitro bikes.

I sure hope that cost will come down so as to make it affordable.
