This paper describes a modeling technique for developing the motion equation of a motorcycles vehicle. Based on the Jourdain's principle approach, the derived model presents a nice analytical formulation with recursive Jacobian matrices computation. The synthesized model takes in consideration the main forces and moments affecting the behavior of the motorcycle and allowing the simulation of 11DOF.

Keywords: Motorcycle dynamics; Jourdain's principle
