Laguna Special Motorcycle Controller by IASystems

[Bram Hengeveld]

I think all sim racers that are hooked to four wheel racing at some point considered making a switch to try out a motorbike racing game or simulation. But got turned off by the fact that you can only control it with your keyboard, mouse or Xbox or PS3 controllers. Well that was until today as IASystems is developing the New Laguna Special Motorcycle Controller.

The developer said on the RaceDepartment Sim Racing Hardware forums:

"The Laguna Special is the exact dimensions of a real Suzuki GSXR and uses an original GSXR seat. Riding it can be a real workout just like on a real bike"

The video was taken playing PiBoSo's GP Bikes and for other motorcycle games such as SBKX, GP500, MX Simulator, TDU1 and TDU2 videos and pictures are expected shortly and we will of course post those as here the moment they are released.

What do you think? Will controllers like this finally open up the market for serious motorcycle racing on PC?

$500 is realistic but wait for me to build the latest version to price it
