LEGO Technic set 8420, “Street Bike”, depicts a road motorcycle built with Technic elements.
Set 8420 sits within LEGO Technic and presents a motor vehicle rather than a character based scene. “Street Bike” represents a road motorcycle in Technic form, emphasizing exposed construction, overall proportions and the mechanical character associated with the theme.
Its build uses Technic beams, axles, connectors and body shaping elements to create the outline of a motorcycle.
In a collection, it fits among Technic motorcycles and road vehicles, offering a focused vehicle subject with a part count that supports a detailed construction while keeping the emphasis on the model itself.
