Doubt there will be another release until the full version. Everything seems to be running fine atm, and JLV doesnt want to give too much away for free

Actually, there will probably be at least one more. The changes so far are -

- When accelerating counter-torque goes to the frame instead of the swingarm. This makes the suspension more active. (This was discussed in another thread.)
- Different slow speed handling. Basically, when the rider puts his foot down, he only lifts the bike to center if you are steering into the turn. Otherwise, he will lift it off the ground, but keep it leaning. I think it works better and feels more natural this way.

Also, I'm going to switch to png for the bike textures so you can have transparency in them.

What about leaning forward/backward?

No, that will have to wait.
