I bought this toy for my son for his sixth birthday. He loves it but for the money it costs I was a little disappointed. It is not very fast, thank goodness it came with training wheels because I don't know how a kid would be able to ride it without, it just doesn't go fast enough. He has had it for a little over a week and the stickers are already peeling off. If he didn't love it so much I would send it back. It cost too much to just be ok.

This is an awesome little motorcycle!!! Mom may be a little frightened at first because on the 2nd speed it moves pretty quick and the front wheel jumps off the ground when the throttle is turned. Be cautious of having bigger kids ride this bike because someone rode ours that was too big and cracked the front fork. However, I called Peg Perego and they shipped a new front fork out immediately and for no charge. Their customer support is outstanding!! Overall a great toy and my three year old loves it!!

This review is from: Peg Perego Ducati Monster (Toy)

My 2.5 year old son loves motorcycles (daddy rides). Since he was 1 he wants to sit on every motorcycle he sees. For his first b-day he recieved an age apropriate eletric ATV that he quickly outgrew. After searching quite a bit for something a bit more real for him that he could grow with I chose the Peg Perego. The greatis feature is the 2 speeds. The slow is walking speed, safe but fun enough. The high is about as fast as jogging. In high spped my son loves to pop wheelies and cruise.

Pros:

Looks great, realistic and cool.

Runs great.

2 speeds (you can lock the high speed so the child can not change on his own.

Drove around for over 2 hr on one charge.

Rubber wheels

Cons

No place for controlling adult to grab.

Speeds are either Low or High no in between and you can not ride slowly on high.

On high even with the training wheels turns are a bit difficult and you can tip over relatively easily (took my son about 2 weeks to figure it out)

All in all My son loves it though he is allready doing stunts and has decent control in high he has a lot more to grow into and it is fast enough to ride without the training wheels once he is able.
