Yes, we have tried it. I got mine from ebay in december.
There are some posts regarding the Allegro bike i the Lighthawk Apex thread. Its a fast toy without proportional steering but dont get too discouraged about the steering. It is less of a problem than for cars IMO |

Not the same for bikes? I'm very curious, I tried a much larger (1/5 ?) electric off road motorbike from a friend and it was really nice... |

Because of the specifics of managing a turn with a bike, that starts with the driver initiating lean then easing off steering input to let the bike turn by its own dynamics, makes for less on-off feel in the simple steering. Thats my guess for difference to toy grade cars.
And no, no hopups. Fitting mini parts would make it a more expensive, but still, -toy. Id rather fit allegro parts to a mini to make it less expensive, though nothing inside is the same. The Allegro is an ok toy that behaves similar to hobby grade bikes but to a fraction of the price. |

Just so you know, Banggood now has the same motorcycle for $22 shipped. I'm tempted to try it. For that price, how can you go wrong. Should be fun in the kitchen!

The price is acceptable. But, it comes with only ONE battery. Don't know where to find the suitable batteries. |

Does the Kyosho mini z motorbike have proportional steering? As far as I can tell from the pics they use the same setup.

The steering setups might look similar at first glance, but the Mini-Z Moto Racer uses a separate replaceable steering servo and has optional steering wires of different gauges to tune the steering response.
