Description

Introducing the MotoGP 2009 mod. The third year of the 800cc machines, and the first year of the unique tyre supplier Bridgestone. The mod aims to faithfully recreate the distinct handling characteristics of each bike and get as many details as possible such as main parameters and sounds. The mod is recommended for intermediate-advanced players. Please note it might take some time to get used to, so please be patient.

Immerse yourself in the true spirit of MotoGP 2009.

The Mod includes the manufacturers Honda, Ducati, Yamaha, Kawasaki, and Suzuki, with 11 teams in total:

– Repsol Honda Team
– San Carlo Honda Gresini
– Scot Racing Team
– LCR Honda
– Fiat Yamaha
– Tech3 Yamaha
– Rizla Suzuki
– Hayate Racing
– Ducati Marlboro Factory Team
– Pramac Racing
– Grupo Francisco Hernando (retired since US Grand Prix)

Useful bike information:

Honda:
The satellite bike’s RPM was limited to 18200rpm to increase engine longevity. San Carlo Honda Gresini rider Toni Elias was given the factory bike.

Chassis:
Every bike has its own chassis stiffness parameters, inertia and characteristics. The development is based on feedbacks and interviews, as well as academic studies.

Engine:
Every bike has its own engine specifications with 3 Selectable engine maps to choose from:

• Mapping 1: standard; most powerful
• Mapping 2: slightly less powerful than Mapping 1
• Mapping 3: least powerful.

ECU:
All the bikes have the same ECU parameters.

Gearing:
All the bikes have the same gearing and gearbox physics. 4 gear sets are available for each gear

Suspensions:
The only difference between the suspensions of each bike is the diameter of the forks.

Geometry:
Main geometry parameters (rake, trail, wheelbase, etc.) are matched to real-life specs.

The mod also includes all of the Helmets used in the season: (templates available)
– AGV
– Airoh
– Arai (includes a model with a transparent visor)
– Nolan
– Shoei
– Shark
– Soumy
– Vemar
– X Lite

I want to thank Bunta Fujiwara and Adrmelandri who converted the suits and the Testers who helped with the development

Tyres info:

– Soft A: Standard soft tyre. The softest carcass/compound, ideal for lower temperatures and smooth tracks
– Soft B: Variation of Soft A; Carcass is slightly harder, slightly larger operating window compared to Soft A, ideal for lower temperatures

– Medium A: Standard medium tyre. The carcass is harder; ideal for mid-temperatures. Better on bumpy sections than Softs tyres
– Medium B: Variation of Medium A; Carcass is slightly harder, slightly larger operating window compared to Medium A ideal for mid-high temperatures.
– Medium C: Hardest Carcass. Ideal for high temperatures and heavy loads.

– Rain Medium: Ideal for wet conditions

– Asymmetric: There are 2 variations to cover tracks that are more intense on one side of the tyre than the other (e.g. Philip Island, Mugello)
