    This simulator uses a real motorcycle with rear wheel speeds up to 150mph. The computer-controlled simulator uses actuators and motors that allow the motorcycle to lean, turn, accelerate, brake, counterweight and counter steer - while on the fixed platform. The picture is of the proof of concept with different bikes on it.

    Cool idea but I can already imagine the VR headset cable getting into the chain at 100mph :eek:
