Hi, I couldn't find this asked before, so forgive if a repeat.

Can anybody recommend motorcycles compatible with GI Joe classified?
I bought "2014 Harley Davidson Sportster Iron 883 Motorcycle Model 1/12 by Maisto 32326" off Amazon, but at 1/12 it's actually slightly small for the Joes (maybe I need 1/10???)

Has anybody experimented with toy "bikes" (motorcycles)? Specifically, I want to deck out my dreadnoks into a motorcycle gang. >:-D

Though yeah if Hasbro hadn't let the Ferret *COMPLETELY SELL OUT FOR EVER AND ETERNALLY*, ATVs might make a decent alternative.

I tried a different 1:12 Maisto Harley and ran into the same problem. Generally 1:10 is a little too big and 1:12 a little too small for the scale Classified is in. Marvel Legends bikes have the best fit I've seen so far.

Hasbro needs to get it over with and make a three-pack.

I use Cobra Coil for Zarana.
ML Punisher bike For Zartan.
Night Ram with stripped paint for Torch.
Green Ram with stripped paint for Ripper.
Tiger Ram with stripped paint for Buzzer.

I haven't got ones for Zandar, Gnawgahyde or Roadpig.

Thanks for the reply! Haha, I regret not buying the Wolverine-with-bike from a few years back, but can try out my Black Widow motorcycle (even though it's not the right look) for size.

The Baroness's big red bike obviously was custom-fit for Classified but seems too large, or at the very least scaled out to be a "touring bike" (do the Dreadnoks show up, surrounding you on their Honda Goldwings?). The R.A.M. is another contender, but seems like it would be too much of a "military surplus klunker" (heavy duty and durable, but with unremarkable acceleration and designed for low speed rough terrain riding).

Thanks for the ideas! I should definitely give the Coil better consideration. I don't particularly associate the Baroness with bikes, and it is sci-fi sharp enough that I could give it to Zarana or her brother.

BTW, when is Hasbro going to give us the Chameleon? A YouTube vid asserted it was the 1980's toyline's highest seller! (Granted, low cost + had to buy it to get Zartan). All the same, I could see my dreadnoks kitted up on it!

Your use for the different R.A.M.s is a smart idea. I hadn't bought them due to the re-use, but currently it would be the most affordable bike on the market, especially if I take off the sidecar (wish Hasbro would give us a passenger sidecar option. Though could seat a poor b*st*rd on the gun.)

Picked up a Batman Drifter Motorcycle at a flea market. It's way too big for most characters, but Road Pig looks OK on it.

You're right--Road Hog looks fine on the bike! Thanks for taking the photo!
