RC Nitro Motorcycle Frames / Kits
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hello All,

Quick question .... Can I get one of these Battery RC Bikes :

http://www.lightninghobby.com/kyosho...70120_prd1.htm

Then just replace the battery and Engine with the Nitro / gas engine ?

Are the engines universal or SHoudl i just buy an outright Gas bike for the 400 or whatever they are ?

Or is only the 1/5 scale or 1/8 scale capable of getting Gassed ?


Thanks Guys !


Oh and here is a pick of my current Bike ,.,,,, Not scale ...... 106HP .... Top speed: Enough

I've only seen one Kyosho converted to nitro. At 1/8 scale, they are just too small for most folks to convert from electric.

If you want nitro, just get one of the 1/5 scale nitro kit bikes. Check out the Nuova Faor SF501 (or new 506) or the Thunder Tiger Duc999r. Much easier to go with nitro to begin with, than to convert, although it's certainly been done.

The 1/5 scale bikes give much better performance also.
