well all things considered im done buying cars trucks buggies and what not now i want a bike i have decided to go electric due to the people that live around me everytime i take my hpi 5b out the cops show up lol but anyway i was wondering what the best intro level bike there is how much, and what option parts are there? any pics and help would be cool.

Are you looking for on road or off road bikes? The off road selection is even more limited than on road.

There are a couple of options...

OTO T-528 (electric) 1:8 scale
Nuova Faor SF-509 (electric and nitro) 1:5 scale
Thunder Tiger makes the Ducati 999 (electric and nitro) 1:5 scale
Venom GP1V (electric) 1:8 scale
Kyosho NSR500 (electric) 1:8 scale
Kyosho Suzuki RGV (electric) 1:8 scale

1:8 scale bikes need a lil less room to run
1:8 scale are more sensitive to bumps and debris, thus 1:5 can run faster

1:5 scale and 1:8 scale have equal stability
1:5 is a lil easier to maintain since theres more room

Nitro is noisier, messier, but not necessarily faster
Electric with lipo and brushless now have run times similar to nitro

I run Kyosho 1:8 bikes with brushless motors and 2S lipos. Very inexpensive, easy to maintain, and dont need too much space.
