I think it's bumpy because the L motors vibrate a lot when in action. From this perspective it makes more sense to use the M motors. -

What's even more unusual is that, the BMW bike B model is not a licensed model, not even a real vehicle, yet it has the BMW logo on it. Even more, that logo is on a sticker for the B-model only. So I really wonder how TLG persuaded BMW to have the BMW logo on the B model -

Yes, but the set we're talking about is a truck. And the Xerion, supposedly designed by MJ / Olav / both has a plate with "OK" too. -

That sounds like Michael Jeppesen (designer of Xerion) -

Any idea what is the part used in the launch base in the pull back sets? -

The first time ever the B-model of a licensed set is not licensed! And it looks like abomination... The Ultralight Helicopter is designed by Lars, same designer of the Cargo Plane 42025. I don't know about you, but I think this guy's aircraft creations look awful. And it's more likely that Milan will be the designer of the Jet. -

A spring is nested between two wishbone pieces. The upper pieces is fixed, the lower one can travel up and down. The front wheel section is attached to the wishbones with tow balls so it can steer. -

Remove rear boxes -> Rebuild into something -> Attach to bike -> B-model Jokes aside, there is the 2-in-1 sign on the box, so yes there will be a B model. -

Look at the top rows of the outer 3x7 frames of the side boxes. There are 4 holes but only 3 of them has black connectors. The lids pivot around the 3rd axle holes. -

@I_Igor The axle in the front is 7 stud long. And I did calculate, so I believe it's a recolored 5L axle with stop. -

It doesn't make sense to build the wheel 1 stud off the middle line, so I think it's the 5L with stop recolored in reddish brown. But recoloring the 5L axle doesn't make sense either... -

There's an axle with stop in reddish brown in the rear wheel. But I'm not sure if it's 6L or 5L. If it's 6L, the rear wheel won't be in the middle. -
