Being relatively new to bike sims could someone guide me, in GP500, as to how I can stop the front end of my bike continually trying to lift off the ground when accelerating in 1st, 2nd or 3rd gears. Thanks PJ

Not sure about in the game, but in real life you can get your weight up as forward as possible. Give a little slip of the clutch to control the height of the front wheel and a little tap on the rear brake without letting off the gas will also bring the front wheel down. If none of that works change your engine power curve and gearing. -- Kevin Anderson [email hidden] --------------------------------------------------- "Paul Jager" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:OEvx5.112114$[email hidden]... > Being relatively new to bike sims could someone guide me, in GP500, as to > how I can stop the front end of my bike continually trying to lift off the > ground when accelerating in 1st, 2nd or 3rd gears. > > Thanks > > PJ > >

Less gas. Bike riders don't slap full throttle exiting a corner, they throttle it so the bike's arse don't come down under you ;) You have to shift the weight forward also if you are doing it manually. You can also tweak the setup for that, but the first suggestion is the main solution. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.WeRace.net -- People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world.
