Newbie looking at nitro R/C bikes
Hi, I have been into nitro cars for a while. I currently have a HPI RS4.
I am interested in getting a thunder tiger ducati nitro bike.
My question is, are they any good and will I be able to learn to use it. I have a fair bit of car experiance and have flown electic heli's also.
Thanks for your help, Jez

Hey,
I race truggy and buggy too and fly my 450 size helis as well.
I recently got a TT Ducati. I will have some pics posted asap. I thought it was worth getting as the details and workmanship is just too good.
Even as a collection i think its worth it. I would race but then in Ontario,Canada I dont know of any clubs to race in.

Yes, the TTn is a great bike to start with. Quite durable and with the low CG the bike is very stable and easy to drive. The only weak point I can think of is the tanks outlet. As it sit right behind the front wheel it get damaged easy. But some simple brass tube from airplane tank and fuel proof silicon should fix that. And get some PMT 200 or 100 tires as well. Night and day different with the kit tires.
