    Big axis movement but I can't see how it would feel in anyway realistic with no centrifugal force.

    Wow that CKU almost throws you off, they have a cushion to keep you on it. All that money into it and ....hey I know lets put a piece of foam on the side here so you can stay on it! I don't get it why so much lean . it looks stupid and not necessary plus pivoting from the bottom flings your head from side to side.
    I have a friend who cant ride anymore he got T boned on his bike, I think I will build a MC sim for him. Just to prove my idea works LOL.
