You need to be able to have total control of your bike. The key to this type of sim or any racing sim for that matter, is to memorize the layout of the tracks. People get so engrossed with how to ride the bike but forget to learn the track. I know people get frustrated that motorcycle sims are unforgiving, but the way to get into this sim is to learn the track- when and where the next turn is going to be, where do I need to shift gears, when to do I need hit the brakes, how fast can I go on a straight before the next sharp turn. Once you've figured out the track layout, it's just a matter of learning when to hit the brakes, lean your bike, downshift the gear, and then exit out fast. Start with an easy track here- Oulton Park, then slowly get into Nurburging GP. Hope this helps.
