The 1:5th scale bikes have really taken off on a global scale and the nitro versions are starting to become very popular also.

In the UK we have raced 1:10th scale Side Car machines for a number of years. These machines are now dying away due to the small size and increased popularity in 1:5th scale. MPP have been involved in Kyosho 1:10th electric bikes at competition level since 1998 and are in the process of setting up a new class for Nitro 1:5th scale side car machines.

We aim to produce a kit which will be 1:5th scale and operate on a .15 racing engine. At this stage we are posting in different areas to see if the interest is their for such a class. I would be happy to hear your thoughts and gather a rough quote of the number of machines that could be sold in your area.
