Don't buy
I feel like I have been scammed. This expensive toy is sooo disappointing in the way it performs. I went to youtube to see the demo, after I purchased it, to make sure the one I had was not broken or if I or my son was not operating it correctly. It filp folps from side to side on the stabilizer bars that come with the bike, that's the way it is meant to perform folks. within 2 minutes in playing this toy I knew I've been duped/suckered into buying this toy. please don't talk my word for it, just look at the other reviews. My wife bought this toy for my 13 year old son for christmas without reading the reivews. DON'T BUY THIS TOY, you'll be sorry. Im sending it back.

My son loves this!! But...
Santa brought this to my 10-year-old son, and he loves it! It looks well-made and he will likely have many hours of play with it. I'm only giving 4 stars because of a few little annoyances:1) you are required to inflate the tires using a small hand-held pump, like the type you would use to inflate a football or basketball. This product comes with the little needle, but not the pump itself. Fortunately we had one on hand (had to look for it though). If we hadn't had the pump, we would have had to wait until the stores open tomorrow to get one. These pumps are inexpensive enough that one could have been included with the product.2) the battery compartment on the vehicle kept popping open and dislodging the battery. I finally got the battery placed in such a way that the door stayed on, but only after 3-4 incidents. The battery compartment should have a better latch.3) product should have come with a carrying case of some sort, because there are a lot of parts to it that if they become lost, the product will become unusable. The little inflating needle, the tire template that must be used to ensure proper inflation of the tires, the extra set of stabilizers, and the plug for the re-chargeable battery all need a home so they don't get lost. I put ours in a gallon-size ziploc bag.Other than these little mommy gripes, the toy is great and my son really loves it!

Fun and Entertaining!
A lot of reviews on here say that this motorcycle is worthless. I beg to differ. It's tons of fun. Sure it may take a little bit to learn the ropes on it, but once you learn how to maneuver it, you can have a blast.The JLX Matrix Motorcycle isn't made for indoors and small areas, it's meant for larger outdoor areas, like parking lots, school playgrounds, and anywhere where there is a wide open space, as long as it's a hard surface.The jumping ability, can take a bit to master, as you have to get it going full speed to get it to flip completely.A hint on the turning, if you want to have it stay upright while turning, you just want to barely move the wheel on the controller. For sharper turns, twist the wheel all the way, and it will use the stabilizers to help it make a sharp turn.

fast and im furious !!
this thing moves pretty well , to bad its on its side most of the time .. since its a motorcycle ,the 2 wheels it has to stay up on is not an easy thing to do. so 90% of the time it rides on its side.it also has a button to make it flip over but that didnt work .. over all a big dissapointment for the kidson xmas day ... i suggest buying the car not the bike if anything ... also for the cost ($100) not agood or smart buy ... stay clear of this one my friends !!

Tough RC to Master
Better have some patience on hand for this one. And quite a bit of room is required to manuever it. Once it gets going it is fast. Also, I would never pay $90 for this...but when I saw a opened and returned one for $35, I jumped on it and am more satisfied with that price.

Toy is fun, exciting, & all I expected. We have had a lot of fun playing with itso far. Operating takes time getting used to but worth the effort.

Not worth the money
This is basically impossible to get upright even at full speed. It goes round and round in circles on its side and the steering really doesn't seem to do anything.I was lucky as I got this at Toys R Us in a clearance blast for about $23. I was still annoyed with its performance but if I had paid the full price of $100 I would have been super pissed!

Bad Made in China Toy
This toy has absolutely no stability on its two wheels, I suspected that s what it would happen but after seeing the commercial on TV I assumed the stabilizers had some sort of effect, but that's obviously not the case. I bought it cheaper at toys r us, the price was $59 in a promotion, so I definitely must be missing something here as I do not understand how it costs triple as much on AMAZON.It s a sham and I highly recommend good sense before buying remote control two wheel toys, ay least some as basic such as this one.The tires barely inflate at all and that obviously didn't change the balance. Other than that from Toys R Us I didn't experience any of the issues described above, such as battery door popping out or battery not working at all.
