I dont think having a locked diff on a Motorcycle with Sidecar like this is a good idea if you want to actually steer 

Also isn't this a MOD of the LEGO Harley Davidson Fat Boy? In my eyes this is a Creator set and does not belong in the "Technic and Model Team" section of EB. Adding a Motor to something does not make it Technic.

Its a cool project tho, I have to admit. I think this is the first time I have seen a RC modded Fat Boy, and bet it is a lot of fun to play with!

@Gray Gear it is actually a thing for off-road usage:

Nice MOC, but I have to disagree with your first statement in the video @camellia... sidecars were born by necessity, and combine all bad parts of motorcycling (exposed to weather, smell, dust) and cars (you will always find the worse lines on the road on 2 tracks, can not bypass easily due to the width - and can not lean into curves or play). Sidecars actually take away all the fun part of a motorcycle - from my perspective.

Thanks for getting your message. You are right. It is based on Creator. I also put a chip into it. It has functions for Internet of Things. I can drive it from a mobile phone via Wi-Fi or 4G.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Truly a magnificent model! I really enjoy motorbikes with sidecars because it reminds me of the movie of Indiana Jones with his dad. Awesome build once again.
