Ok this is driving me loco Im just woundering why r ther no street bikes in any /\/FS web pages?
Like iv seen moving bubbles that got 1000+ mph and hell even a moving house but why no street bikes? Is the animations to hard to do? or is it that most or all nfs fans are car carzy but hell dont ALL racers have the need for speed wether ther on two weels or fore?!
ps::Peace:

There's been several motorcycles made for NFSHS, I don't remember where they are though. :( I made a bicycle a long time ago for HS, it's on my webpage. http://pitstop.totalnfs.net

Go to nfs 4 cars and scroll down to Special Cars, the bikes are there.

^_^ ^_^ LOL! I went and checked out the special cars, and I nearly fell off my chair when I saw the Galaxy class starship! Could you imagine seeing a ship the size of 4 football fields barreling down the highway? Now we just need a Romulan Warbird, heheh.

Wow thank u all for sending in url's! Great help!
NFS doesn't really lend itself to recreating bikes very well.
If it did, you'd have a very accurate Honda CBR-900RR Fireblade with awesome textures and everything modelled for NFS.. It'd have accurate sounds (awesome sounding bike, loud as hell). It goes like a missile too.. Doesn't stop accelerating until it hits nearly 290km/hr.

My editing skills are very rusty, but don't bikes requires a negative roll factor value so that they lean into the turns?

As far as I know, nobody ever made a bike lean using carp settings. I tried negative roll settings on my bicycle, didn't work. However, you can make the bike in on single part named od, (the driver/steering wheel part) then set all the poly flags to the rotate settings, which makes it lean in turns, though not very well.
Racer kinda supports bikes, you can lower the cg below ground and get a nice lean in corners. The steering and suspension systems aren't made for bikes though, so it's not as good as a motorcycle sim would be.

i download a bike and the driver leans 90 degrees but the bike stays upright and it turns way to quick, didnt even do one lap of hometown cause it was so damn hard to controll
