Lego Technic Ducati Panigale V4R with LED lighting kit.
In what universe does that even slightly resemble a Panigale V4R? Whatever the Lego kit cost, it was money wasted.

The Lego MT-10 looks a lot more like the bike its based on... but that's because the Yamaha looks like it's make from Lego anyway.

They've just launched an H2R that looks a bit like a Kawasaki if you squint a bit.

I quite like the M1000RR kit.

They're made to a price point, the more expensive the kit, the more parts and the more it looks like a proper bike. IIRC the Panigale is the cheapest one.

I'm a bit gutted as went looking for a Piste Basher in Lego - but it seems that the only one is for under 8 years old, so probably not exactly a technical jobbie :( :(

Kinda sad as I got quite excited when I was looking at some of the other kits around!!

Will have to wait for them to make the 'big girl' version :D :D (I can say that as it's feminine in French!! La Dameuse!!) :D

The ones I didn't find were the Lego Technic!! The others are very young ages, so probably not what I want (although easier than the Technic!!).

Best get saving :lol: :lol: :lol:
