Downshifting while braking is completely broken

[jestifizzle]

You have to spam all your down shifts before entering a turn because downshifting while leaning seems to buck the entire bike causing you to lose the front. Its worse on slower bikes and the only way to combat it is to turn ABS to 3 or 4. Milestone never cease to amaze me with bad physics. This is the last straw

Strange. not getting that at all on a 250. If anything i noted to myself i could pull the front brake harder tat the start of braking. ABS is at 0. EBS or whatever its called on bike is set to 2.

strange, it works ok for me

Okay so I figured out that you have to have engine brake on a minimum of 2 otherwise it happens. Also normal road tyres seem to add to the affect. Race tyres prevent it from happening on a lot of the turns

I've played quite a few different motorcycle racing games since the original MotoGP in 2000 and I've never gotten the hang of playing with a manual gearbox on any game.

However, I have ridden sports bikes my whole life on the road and track and in real life you don't knock it down a gear while in a corner.
There may be the odd time heading into a decreasing radius corner where you have a little lean happening and you knock it down a gear just before cranking it right over, but for 99.99% of the time you want to be in the right gear before committing to the corner. So in effect this is not bad physics, it is what happens to a certain extent in real life. Downshift while cranked over and at the least you'll unsettle the bike and at worst lose the backend with a potential highside or possibly even lose the front.
Modern slipper clutches have reduced this a LOT to the point that you can downshift in a corner, but there is still a risk of upsetting your bike mid corner which is something you don't want to do.
Finally, on left hand corners you basically can't downshift while cranked over due to the gear lever almost touching the road and very little room to move your foot even if you wanted to.

Im not sure if you have to upgrade the gearbox to have these settings but in the bike tuning menu you can adjust the slipper clutch to give more slip thus downshifting while leaning over wont lock your rear wheel. Which is whats causing you to go down. A hard downshift with a clutch that doesnt slip will send the change of speed to the tire, basically like hitting the rear brake mid corner.
