Shared tyres?

That Piboso vid posted is not showing the SuperMoto bike in action in GPB, it's in WRS, Matty. 

Hawk.

How high are you son?

You sure about that Hawk? Looks like MXB to me 

Yeah... You could well be right there Deste! 

Didn't know that MXB had hard roads? Thought it was a motocross sim?

I beginning to think I belong in a different era, I tell ya! 

But MX is dirt racing....  SuperMoto is dirt and track?!

What is the world coming to[Old duffer shaking his head]!! Hehe.

In my day.... Blah, blah, blah..... LOL!

Answer from Piboso (from MXB forum):

It means that all the MX bikes will share the same tyre physics and models, making work easier for modders and during development.

Thanks Max, well sniffed out.

nice one! 

anyway.... Ride height and triple clamp offset!!! 

will these settings make a visual difference i wonder?

Hard to spot a few mm just looking at the bikes.

yeah but what about more than a few mm?  if you jack up the rear and drop the front, that should be very obvious.

Oh, but that already happens as far as I know, no ?
If you edit the geom (e.g. change where the front fork joins the chassis), you see that in game.

oh ok, you mean in the files?

either way, to have all these settings will (hopefully) open up some good handling differences.. Rake and trail should make a huge difference to how the bike handles.. with ride height and offset on the way (on top of all the other settings that affect rake/trail) im excited to try!! hopefully we get an adjustable (in garage settings) steering damper too!  that will be important for very low rake/trail settings imo.

Little test exaggerating the values of the Aprilia RSW500 (which, BTW, has the swing arm pivot setting working fine).

On the bottom pic it looks like a drag racer

Nice did you ride it? what do i change to raise, lower?

No I didn't, as the values were way too far from acceptable ones. The pivot adjustment on a bike is no more than a few mm in each direction I think. In the example I added +/- 20cm, but just to show that the change in the .geom has a visual impact.
