Questions on Moto GP

ko... so i want to get one of these things cuz i am a motorcycle freak. but i noticed that it hads 2 wheels on the bottom... are these the drive wheels and it turns on diferentual stearing? or are these simply for balance? if so, then how does it turn? i notice they have some in stock at toyeast.com. are these the some ones you dudes are talking about? well any help will be apreciated. Thanks

The center wheels are for keeping it upright. It doesn't generate enough centrifugal stability to stay upright like a real bike. The front wheel steers it like a real motorcycle. (well, except that a real bike turns in the opposite direction of the curve, but that's because it leans...a whole 'nother pot-o-beans)

I'm a bike nut too, (see website) but I really wouldn't recommend these. Yeah they're cheap, but they're poorly made and the steering tends to exit the building if you sneeze on it. Take extra good care of it if you do get one.

Where in the US are people getting the bit motorcycles? I've checked hobby stores and rc stores and I can't find any rits or microsizers at all. I've come across something called a micro racer at 1:64th scale but the body and remote looked very low budget for $25.00 Please tell me there is a non-internet source of bits (especially in North East USA).
