However, there will also be an online downloadable version of the game
[don't know the dates] that will contain the full functionality, except no
AI riders, and somewhat smaller textures [to save download time] that you
could try before you buy.
However, you should note that multiplayer for the game will be handled
solely through Motorsims' pay-to-play proprietary network which is in a way
very similiar to TEN.

We wanted to have a demo version out this week but it didn't work out. We're
working on a bunch of online-related issues and since the demo version is a
subset of the online version, there was some impact there.
In the next week or so we'll be announcing our first prize-bearing online
event too.

Sorry, but no to both.
Harley wouldn't grant us a license for bizarre reasons. Which sucked because
we had the bike modelled and sampled and everything. We hope that in time
they will come to see the error of their ways. ;-)
Phoenix is owned by ISC (which also owns Daytona) and we couldn't come to
financially agreeable licensing terms for their tracks.
As with Harley, we haven't given up, we'll continue to try to come to terms
that make sense. If Harley comes back to us and says "go" we can have the
bike back in the game with a couple of days.

There will be a patch available on the transmitter very soon which should
address most of the collision problems.
Our release date had zilcho to do with GP500. Seriously.
Don't expect to see us go away anytime soon either. Trust me (or don't) ...
ain't no one more aware of the rough edges than our development staff.
