More Miniland Plus than Miniland, the Big Dirt Bike is a rework of the trail bikes riding on my Lego City Dirt Bike Transporter.
Upping the wheel diameter from 30.4 mm to 43.2 adds to the ground clearance and off-roaderiness. Adding a posable rider adds to the cool factor and realism.
What I found in the translation from LDD to bricks was a bike that was pretty robust, and a posable figure who really wasn't so much. Biggest weakness was the rotational loosness of the hips. Otherwise, he can do pretty much anything - he is a bit tricky to pose on the bike though, as he isn't gripped by any Lego clutch mechanism.
Anyway, a fun little MOC to build for LUGNuts 55th Build Challenge - 'Rubber side down, Shiny side up!' - celebrating all things motorcycle-like.
