This looks like a fairly good idea- there are things it cannot deal with- ie momentum, but generally, most sims can't. Fair play to the team for having a crack...

"We'll be back on Friday......and to find out who's to blame- bikes or cars"

Now that may be worth paying attention to!

A VR headset would have been a better idea!! ... you can't simulate all the hazards and the riders observation skills with just a projection like that. Having a static bike that moves about is almost pointless ... what a wastes of a 675 :(

So with these alterations it has merit, but as it is, I can't see it is up to much :(

already been on something similar, not as good-a bike to sit on but it was at the NEC the year before last. I kept crashing, just felt weird to be using.
