I have never experienced a full on force feedback joystick like a Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback 2, but from the sounds of it the motors can move the stick in the x and y axes with considerable force. My suggestion is more like a question to JLV or anybody who knows a bit about flight sims.
Would it be possible to adapt a controller like this so that say....I rotate the stick (like turning my handlebars, pivoting around say the z-axis) and the game outputs the lean angle of the bike back into the joystick driving the feedback motors to make the stick lean? If the game can do this (some other forces pumping through the stick from heavy impacts etc wouldn't go a miss either
) and if the motors could cope (nothing a few mosfets and some heavy duty motors couldn't fix I'm sure 
) then simply adding a small set of bars onto the stick and re-routing some of the pots and switches to make a throttle, clutch, brake etc could make a pretty sick mxsim controller.Just thought it might be a cool little project if they somebody some spare cash and the game supported it although I'm pretty sure the expensive stick would need to be slaughtered somewhat to get it to work. and the coding is probably a big project in itself.
