Well, motorcyclist & riding a wanna-be sport bike ('80 Kawasaki 750 cruiser converted to Cafe Racer) I'm completely addicted to playing Tourist Trophy on the PS2. So I managed to screw around a few times while playing the game & got really good at wheelies & stoppies. The game allows you to view your race in highlight photos taken by the PS2. Here are a few shots that turned out really well from the game (saved on to my 4GB USB memory stick):
** click the images for a full screen 1024x768 version ** Ducati 999R RM (Racing Modify)
Suzuki GSX-R1000 (front wheel is off the ground)
Aprilia RSV1000 R (launched in the air before high side accident)
Yamaha SR400 RM (leaning over hard on a Cafe Racer)
Buell Firebolt XB12R RM (wheelie king)

Yeah, it takes quite a bit to get use to. Especially once you decide to switch to Pro mode. It allows you to have full control over brake bias & traction control is all up to the player. If you over throttle it, it will tend to spin back tire and cause either lowside or highside accidents.
And yes, they primarily used the GT4 engine but there are many more physics involved with transfer of body weight back & forth that can either help or hurt you during a race. It's very close to true sport bike riding.
