I sold one of these yesterday and have been asked to make a couple more, a Honda Silverwing and a Ducatti 749s both in 1/18th scale.
If anybody here would like to commission one I am offering a reduced price for AAEC of only £40 delivered.
They are a great conversation piece and make a lovely gift or collector/enthusiast item.
I am also happy to mod any other vehicles from a Hummer to a Harrier, a Subaru to a Submarine!
Specs may vary with design constraints, availability and specific requirements but this would be agreed in advance. Spec:
1/18th scale metal frame Ducatti 999 with plastic fairing and rubber tyres. Protected 1200mah 18350 battery under the tank. 510/ego connector in saddle. Amber LED in running light. Fire button in off side fairing. Working side stand. 0-60 in 3.7 volts!
Would look fab on your desk or fireplace with the atty of your choice sitting proud.
I only had a CE5 handy but a Nova would set this off a treat!
Feel free to leave a note here or PM me.

Great work! If you don't mind me asking how long did it take to complete? It looks like it might have been pretty fiddly? I agree about it being a conversion piece. Really nice.

Not at all Chuck. Only about 3 hours total work but was in 15-20 minute bites throughout the day. I tend to flit between projects.
Planning the layout and fiddling took up a good chunk of time so I could get it down to about 2 hours if I did another exact copy.
Also didn't want to end up with any wires hanging down so I used solid core wire which is quite awkward in a build like this. Could take off another 20 mins if I used flexible wire.
