I have a couple of the original. They are cool except the range on the old one was like 25 feet max before it lost connection with the controller. Awesome that Losi who imo is the best rc maker makes them. The difference between driving a Traxxas  around a field compared to a losi is night and day. An 1/8th scale stock losi could rail my old little track round and round with zero issues where a pro modded Traxxas could barely do a lap without flipping or bouncing out of control if it got choppy. I am sure Traxxas has gotten better over the years and are awesome fun as well.

I noticed the Losi emblem on the Pro Circuit jersey's in SX so I guess it makes sense they would be introducing a MX RC motorcycle.  Love it!  I've got a Losi Nitro Truggy that is a blast to drive.  I never had a Traxxas but would agree with FLmxer that Losi is hard to beat.

Chase got a killer hole shot! 

Well this just made me feel about 8 years old again. I remember the old Jeremy Mcgrath RC that blew my little mind back then. These look pretty rad!

These are pretty cool, chain drive and linkage rear suspension, front end collision shock system, loop out rear fender, cable operated front brake, JMart ClubMX replica.

I just saw this  bike earlier and was going to post about it . They have gear sets that You can buy and change out, plastic kits in just about every color, Anodized hubs, sprockets, triple clamps , linkage. Replica Dunlop MX53's with yellow logos on the.  The way its controlled sounds like an advancement over the older versions from other brands too. It looks like it handles much better than the others I've seen. I wonder if they are popular if other MX gear brands will offer gear sets for them?  At $599.99  for the kit with battery and charger ready to go , it is a little on the expensive side. But not far off what other quality RC trucks/cars go for . I hope that they are easier to run than the others that have come out before. It would be cool to have a RC dirtbike that was fun to run that could be run on a track that was similar to a real MX track. 

Some of the shots of the bikes jumping, landing, going into corners, look very realistic. They look like they could be fun.

A friend sent me the IG post last night and I was stoked on it. Then I saw the price. No thanks. Badass for sure, but not for $600.

A #1 on a PC bike? Been a while since we've seen that. 

Awesome toy. Steep price but obviously this thing is overbuilt and not anything like the cheap walmart bikes. Would be awesome if you could swap out riders, plastic and graphics to other bikes.

I have two of the original RC Honda's that I bought for my kids years ago. First time I tried to drive it I ran under a concrete bench and knocked Ricky's head off. We never could get the hang of those crazy things and they have been in storage ever since. The Losi looks pretty cool.

I was 10 or so when I had the Jeremy McGrath RC bike too. I created a mini supercross track for it and had jumps and a woops section. People couldn't believe it could do the jumps until seeing it lol. That thing was a blast.

But can you flip it? I’d love to have one of these actually seems fun. Especially if your body’s hurting but feel like having some fun

They have a download able file on their website of the graphic cutout pattern so you can have them printed to a custom design yourself along with more plastic colors. I've got that video on now, they did some really cool things with this design.

That's awesome! Can't think of a dirty job I wouldn't have done to buy one of these when I was a kid.

If you watch the video I posted you might be asking how they are only charging $600 considering there are very few pieces reused from the losi parts bin. This isn't the 300th version of a slash chassis.

Reminds me of the Ricky Carmichael replica they made 20 years ago. I remember walking into radio shack when I was a little kid with all the money I saved up to buy one. Still have it on the little plastic stand it came with in my closet.

There it is!!! Surprised it took so long for an E start joke to make it's way into thread. Is Martin the only licensed rider in there? Couldn't tell if the red bike had a name on the jersey. Those look really fun

Martin on the blue, Losi on the red, and Payton on the green which is a cool touch.

 My RC is retired. After many crashes, then finally endoing and breaking the headtube off the bike, as team manager I decided not to invest anymore.
