I don't remember Tyco having motorcycles. I hope they went around curves better than the Aurora Thunderjet motorcycles did. Those were awful.

They came out in the mid 1970’s right around 1975-77, I would have to check for the exact year.

The Tyco motorcycles ran really good, they have a magnet on the bottom, keeps them on the track, they have a very powerful motor, they are really fast.

This one is NOS, never run, tires are mint, really nice condition.

I have a lot of NOS and Original slot cars from the 1960’s-1970’s and 1980’s.

By '75, I was past my slot car years. My slot car priime was probably '67 to about '72/'73. I had almost all Aurora. I sold my whole collection before I went to work in Egypt for 3 years. Glad I did because my basement flooded while I was away and it would have all been ruined anyway. I grew up in NJ. I bought almost all my slot car stuff at R&S in Lawrence Shopping Center on the Brunswick Pike near Trenton or Majors Department Store in Flemington. Each of those stores had tremendous stocks of track, cars, parts, scenery. Hobby stores today are useless compared to what they were like in the '60s and early '70s. Anything that didn't come from those two stores came from either Autoworld or the Sears Wishbook. When my kids were young in the late '80s/early '90s I bought a couple of big Tyco sets and got back into it for a while. Now that's all stuffed away into boxes. At least what didn't get ruined in the basement flood.

Yes, we had a store in our downtown that had a very large selection. The cars and track were very expensive back then.

I think there is 4 or 6 different Tyco motorcycles from the 70’s. I think I have 2 of the Aurora motorcycles from the 1960’s, Red and Yellow, they definitely have older styling. I still have a lot of good cars!

I will post some pictures.
