The mathematical model which has been developed to describe the dynamics of the motorcycle [1–5] has attained a rather complex configuration. Torsion of front and rear frames and lateral flexibilities are options which may be included.

    Tyre response to certain road irregularities is measured and mathematical models to describe this particular behaviour are being developed. As to the validation of the mathematical motorcycle model it was argued that the commonly performed road tests suffer from disturbances originating from the human rider which are difficult to measure or to control. For that reason a Rider Robot has been developed which replaces the human rider.

    Each of these three subjects will be discussed in the following chapters.
