Abstract
A remote-controlled toy motorcycle includes a chassis supported by oversized front and rear tires for increased stability, and a chassis-mounted rider figure having rotating members for contacting a ground surface to prevent excessive wear of the rider figure legs and also to allow the toy motorcycle to self-start from a leaning position. “Counter-steering” is simulated by actuating a steering servo to initially turn a front wheel from a straight original direction to a direction opposite the desired turn direction. The front wheel is held momentarily while the toy motorcycle destabilizes and leans in the turn direction. Then, the steering servo is automatically actuated to turn the front wheel in the desired turn direction.
