Hello, Its nice to see a decent motorcycle sim finally come out, I see some probs w/ the sim, but i cant complain. SBK2 will be better im sure. I was havng problems w/ my TSW2 being too sensitive, I tried a joystick but still found i could only drive in arcade view. If I calibrated my wheel in windows half way to full lock rather than all the way, the bike handled much more realistically. After that change i went from 1:30's at Laguna Seca to 1:25's getting the pole first time actually qualing, on the bike, not in arcade view. (Sim mode highest difficulty) So if you havent tried calibrating like that, do it, It works. Hans-

Good idea, too bad my USB joystick and steering wheel auto calibrate! Might dust of an old controller and give it a go.

Thanks for the tip. I'll give a try tomorrow, when I buy a new stick (my one's broken!) I'm concidering the Microsoft Sidewinder - non FF. I wonder if it's any good? Griffin, the Slayer

Hi, Thats the joy i used when i didnt like how my wheel was working. I havent tried "the half calibration method", lol, with the sidewinder pro, since i got my wheel to work nice. I will try it out tonight. How do you like the FF in SBK? Hans- >I'm concidering the Microsoft Sidewinder - non FF. I wonder if it's any good? >Griffin, the Slayer

I haven't tried FF yet, sorry. Do you like the Sidewinder?
