Your 3-7 year old will be posing with the big kids while riding their very own off-road Ducati Monster. With exciting, bold colors, slip resistant tires, a durable frame and front & rear shocks, the Ducati Monster is set to take on grass, dirt or hard surfaced terrain. A 12-volt battery and two robust motors provide the power for two-speed action; 2 1/2 or 5 mph. It comes with training wheels and a high-speed lockout for beginners.

Looks good from 10 feet away. Detailed enough that you think it is a real Ducati Monster. Very appealing for younger age groups for which it is intended.

Over all it looked good, and my daughter was thrilled with it, so that is what counts.
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!!
My son is enjoying the bike but it came with a big crack in the plastic engine. I called to see about getting a replacement part and I have to prove my purchase, take a photo of the piece that is cracked, and email them copies of everything, just to get them to ship me a new piece of plastic.
Why would I want a piece to something if I didn’t buy it or it wasn’t cracked? They can see by their records it was shipped to me within the last couple of days. I find this to be very irritating.
