i'm using MS FF wheel with the shifts on the back flip buttons, situp
button assigned to the upper right button(so i can situp while
downshifting with the left back button,which reduces a lot the braking
distance),and the look behind assigned to the upper left button.It works
very well for me.
I know using the wheel is something weird but i think that we will
hardly ever see a true bike controller, so...

I use a MS Joypad on mine and it handles suprisely well. I like being able
to accelerate and hit the lean up button to pull a wheel stack in 2-3rd
gears over a hill.... awesome effect.

Thanks for the riding tips, Mark.  I'm now using my MS 3dPro joystick and
CHpro pedals and it has made worlds of difference in riding the bikes.
Managing two axis with a stick is just too much when you are trying to be
smooth and accurate on leaning the bike.  The pedals are set on a split axis
so I can accelerate and apply brakes together to a degree.  I've reduced
dropping the bike by 2/3rds now.  Having some great dices with the other
riders.  I think the game is now brilliant for me.

Can't adjust the sensitivity. On tracks like Monza or the A1 this is not too
much of a problem but Leguna Seca and a couple of otheres with very tight 1st
gear bends are a pain at the moment. Altering the track and rake of the bike
helps a bit.
