Great Superbike Recovery

Today, the breed develops still further through the category of superbike racing that employs modified production motorcycles, in the same manner that GT and touring car racing employ production cars. Many countries such as the USA, the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada operate national superbike championships, and a World Superbike championship has run since 1988.

Superbike motorcycles today are generally 1000cc four-stroke machines with either two or four cylinders. 900cc triples are also permitted, but so far only Benelli and Foggy Petronas, the team run by ex-racer Carl Fogarty, have fielded them in World Superbike competition, with limited success.
