Is there some problem with the first download link? The file has a different hash code compared to the second link and the installer says it's corrupt.

thx for update piboso!

but Due to this update, the tank slapper, shimmy, and wobble have worsened. It feels like we can't ride as smoothly as we used to. Has this been thoroughly tested, or is there something the bike can do to adapt to these new behaviors?

Since it has become more difficult to ride, my motivation to ride alone in silence has decreased. Will the next update be around 2025?

However, GPBikes is the No1 bike simulator, and I believe I'm the best at it. I've been looking forward to it for a long time.

I completely agree, the motorcycle is terribly unstable, any change in direction or acceleration ends with the motorcycle rocking and falling to the ground. At the strongest highside, in real life, the motorcycle sometimes narrows less than in the GP game when applying the gas in a corner. It's very bad

Physics is going in the wrong direction, then when choosing springs there are ??????? ?????????

The physics is actually going the right way. The problems we're experiencing are more a compatibility issue with mods (and ironically the stock bike).
Hopefully a solution will be found soon so we can enjoy the improvements beta21 brought!
