Motorcycle Specific Setting for Setup
11/5/09 6:06 AM
It would be really cool if we could select a motorcycle specific setting for the setup section. Or even to assign motorcycle settings to a vehicle!!

No need for 4 tire pressures, no sway bars, no toe, no caster, no camber, etc.

The option for more specific motorcycle setting would be absolutely awesome!

I'm working this for a future release. What other motorcycle specific settings would you like to see?

This would be all inclusive and very detailed, naturally. I know this is a lot of information, but I figure it's better to be detailed that not detailed enough.

Tires:
Tire manufacturer:
Front tire model:
Front tire diamater (or radius):
Rear tire model:
Rear tire diamater (or radius):
Front tire compound:
Rear tire compound:
Front tire pressure:
Rear tire pressure:

Many times this this is measured as clicks from hard, or clicks from soft.

Steering Damper Setting:

Front:
Spring Rate:
Fork Oil Weight:
Fork tube height above triple tree (ride height):
Preload:
Compression Damping:
(High Speed Compression Damping: ) - Not all bikes have this - but some newer ones do
(Low Speed Compression Damping: ) - Not all bikes have this - but some newer ones do
Rebound Damping:
Rider Sag:
Static Sag:


Rear:
Spring Rate:
Shock Oil Wight:
Preload:
Compression Damping:
(High Speed Compression Damping: ) - Not all bikes have this - but some newer ones do

Thank you. This setup info is very helpful. I'll get this into an upcoming version. It will most likely by v1.9.

Awesome, thanks!

I'm looking forward to running this on my Sprint Hero, eventually...emoticon...hopefully Sprint will get off their butts and bring us into the 1.6 (or even 2.0) world so I can take advantage of your updates. As it sits right now, I'm stuck on your 1.7 I believe it is. emoticon

Thanks again!

Sprint has confirmed that they will upgrade the Sprint HTC Hero and Samsung Moment to Android 2.X sometime in the first half of 2010. Verizon says they will upgrade the Droid Eris (same as HTC Hero) in Q1 2010. Hopefully, it will be sooner rather than later, but at least they confirmed the upgrade.

Yeah, I saw that as well.

However, I'm not sure I'm willing to wait...could be January 1 or it could be June 30th...haha

I actually spend a good chunk of today at work (it was slow...lol) reading up on rooting my Hero, and the different ROMs that are currently available.

It sounds fairly easy, and I'm actually considering trying it tomorrow. emoticon

Any chance this gets implemented anytime soon?

This is still on the new feature list. I have a request to support kart specific setups, too. Need to figure out how best to support multiple setup types. It's a pretty big code change. There is a workaround by using the "Notes" field for additional setup parameters.

New motorcycle and kart setups are now supported in v2.4. When creating a new setup you can now choose. Check it out:
