Testing Out Vehicle Physics

Using Unreal's own vehicle physics simulator, I have put together a very rough blueprint to drive the bike. Because the physics engine is optimized for four wheeled vehicles, I will have to do a lot of tinkering to get the desired effect of riding a motorcycle. 

I've also discovered a bug within UE4. While using a scene capture actor with the highest render settings, there is a distracting ghosting effect. In a previous youtube video, I demonstrated the problem and since then, a quick fix hasn't surfaced. It is likely that the problem is hardware related. For now, using the medium detail settings within the editor removes the ghosting, which allows for my carpaint shader to function properly.
