Has anyone tried the microsoft sidewinder freestyle pro gamepad with sbk2000
? It looks like it should be good with bike games i was just wondering what
peoples experiences with the pad were.

That's exactly the controller I use with SBK2000 and GP500!  I bought
it for the sole reason of using it with motorcycle sims.  I have my
Microsoft Steering wheel connected to a gameport on my PC and the
Freestyle via the USB.  With this combo, I can use the freestyle for
steering/shifting and the wheel's pedals for throttle and braking...

I found that the FS Pro isn't accurate enough - I was constantly
overcorrecting.  I ended up going back to my trusty dusty SW 3D Pro.
