I'm with DJ, except I also lack funding, space and materials on top of the skill. :lol:
I top that with also being very lazy :mrgreen:
Smoookey do you have a projector or something that you use with that. I reckon one of these would be perfect with that system :o :

Yeah that would be cool :)

No I will use my LCD TV, but i can't have the bike in my TV-room so i'll have to find something else for it (if it's fun to use).

Well if you look at my system you will see it is pretty compact and comes with a monitor or laptop stand that can hold a 40" screen!!! I will be building a sit on system too.

OK just a quickie to let you know. Josh and I have now made it so my system works 100% on MXS. I now have steering, throttle, Front brake, Rear Brake and clutch fully analog and rider control on bar switches.

I am working on a new design that is only for MX so that the steering is right for MX and not mainly road bikes as with this system. Will keep you updated on it.

That's very awesome. I'll also tell you that I'll be one of the first customers for that thing.

If it is possible to have forward/backward leaning by pushing/pulling on bars that would be the bees knees. If not, a simple button is fine. I rarely lean forward or back, and if I do, a button would suffice.

Any possibiliy of rumble-packs or force-feedback?

Joking aside, I have had to spend over $2000 in tooling and materials and testing on this one. Naturally that is not what one costs, but by the time I have had to change springs, gears and all the little things that make it function and feel the way it does, it mounts up quick, but thats what development takes in order to produce the next ones at a lower price and better quality.
