The feasibility, design, and performance of TC are determined by the engine-to-slip dynamics. Three physical models have been presented and compared to each other and with road test data in order to understand the features which are essential for accurate modelling of the plant. The first model (neither tyre compliance nor sprocket absorber compliance included) is widespread, the second (tyre flexibility included) is implemented in many motorcycle multibody codes, whereas the third includes the sprocket absorber flexibility and it is not common in the literature. The analysis revealed that the tyre's circumferential compliance is essential to model the main resonance of the plant, moreover the absorber flexibility improves the model consistency after the main resonance. Finally, the validated model has been used to investigate the effects of longitudinal acceleration on the plant response and, in particular, the effects of the tyre's normal load and stiffness have been addressed both together and separately. In addition the models presented in this work give physical reasons for the shape of the ETSTF found with road test data, while the analytic expressions reported are an effective tool both for parametric investigation and TC design.
