What is neat about this remote control… is it simulates a real motorcycle handlebar.  Complete with twistable throttle and a break.

A simple shot of the controller:

Here is a short video of the bike and control in action:

 

Thanks to Klocki for the heads-up on this project. There are some other neat projects on leggor’s BrickShelf page.
