Default Scale Model

So I'm wondering who here has a scale model of their bike. I just picked up a 1:6 scale (34" long) black road king classic. I've always been big into R/C cars and trucks (nitro, electric and gas). This one is going to be a project. This one has hard bags and some other goodies that don't exactly match my bike. I'll be using my computer software that prints model decals along with some model-style plastic and body filler to construct saddlebags and paint the bike up to match mine. It should be cool when it's all done. Since my bike will be on the road next week, I've got to have a project for the rainy days and while I'm not on the bike

1:6 Scale Road King

Here's what I'm getting. It's made by New Bright. It sold in Walmart back in 2007 I think

Pretty darn cool. How does it stay upright, side wheels? Try to post a video when you have it running, I'm intrigued...

Pretty awesome. Thanks. Pity there aren't any real parking lots here in New York City!

Yeah. I'm hoping mine shows up here in the next couple days. It was shipped out on Saturday. As soon as it gets here it's going under the knife... Hopefully I'll manage some photos before that happens
