In this paper, we present a new method for the computation of the maximal authorized motorcycle speed in curves. The three main factors which are the vehicle, the driver and the infrastructure are taken into account. The vehicle dynamics are represented by a four degrees of freedom model which includes the vehicle's longitudinal slip and sideslip angle. The driver behavior model considers the ability in deceleration maneuvers according to the mobilized friction. The infrastructure characteristics introduce a precise handling of the road geometry and of the maximal available friction.
