Most professionals when they ride their motorcycle on a track, measure several data items; amongst others the lean angle (or better know as inclination), the G-force encountered, acceleration, etc. Although some modern sportsbike are able to measure some of this data on their own, there's a gadget for those that can not, and want to.
Called the Leanometer  , the device is self-sufficient and self-standing (in other words, you don't need to wire it to your motorcycle). Place it on your bike, and watch the figures as you evolve through the track. Two modes are available, SafeDisplay, the data is shown after you have taken a curve, and Live Mode, a mode to be used when you have mounted an external camera so you can analyze your behavior and performance afterwards on the video.
You can see your performance in the last 25 curves on the display itself. Do a run, stop and quickly analyze where you can improve on the track.
The unit also records continuous data for 5 hours. You can hook up the Leanometer to your PC using a supplied USB cable, and analyze your motorcycle and your performance during the last 5 hours (click on the image above to see the data).
Nothing more simple to look like a pro during track days. Watch the video below to get an idea how it works.
Cost: UK£79.95 / US$129.95 / €99.95
