Chaos Motorcycle Leaning & Tuning - UE5 Chaos Motorcycle | Part 3

Build speed-based leaning and tune the motorcycle’s suspension, collision, engine, transmission, and steering.

About this tutorial

Welcome back to Part 3 of my Chaos Motorcycle series! In this tutorial, we take our motorcycle from simply working to feeling like a real sport bike. We’ll improve the riding experience by implementing realistic leaning, tuning the suspension, adjusting the engine and transmission, and refining the steering system for smooth, responsive handling.

  • Create a realistic speed-based leaning system using Chaos Vehicle’s Target Rotation Control
  • Tune the front and rear suspension for authentic sport bike behavior
  • Fix wheel collision, friction, and raycast issues when leaning
  • Configure the engine, transmission, torque curve, and gear ratios
  • Improve steering with Single Angle mode, a custom steering curve, and responsive input settings
