In this research, we developed a “motorcycle riding skill visualization device”. While riding a motorcycle, rider's body exerts forces on several points of motorcycle. The forces by the professional riders are quite different than by the beginners. Visualization of forces gives a clear image of what kind of operation the driver performing. In the visualization system, pressure sensors are installed on the different parts of motorcycle, such as tank, steps, handles. These sensors are installed with jigs which are manufactured. Output signals from the sensors are amplified and are then send to PC and visualized on the display. The visualization device helps beginners to improve their driving skill in motorcycle driving courses. This paper describes the sensor system which is installed on the experimental motorcycle. In the experiments, some veteran riders and beginners ride the experimental motorcycle. The several experimental results are shown in this paper. The sensor system clarifies the difference between professional riders' skill and beginners' skill.
