	Superbike racing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Superbike racing is a category of motorcycle road racing that employs modified production motorcycles, in the same manner that Touring car racing employs production cars.
		Superbike motorcycles are generally 1000cc four-stroke machines with either two or four cylinders.
		During the early 1990s World Superbike racing was generally regarded by the public in general as a poor cousin to the more glamorous MotoGP championship.

		A race may be run continuously from start to finish or may be made of several segments called heats or stages.

		Mounted on Honda's first Superbike, a 1023cc 130-horsepower 160-mph monster based on the twin-cam CB750F, Spencer narrowly missed winning his inaugural Superbike race at this most prestigious of venues, but he would go on to win five Daytona Superbike races on Hondas.
		In the 22 years of racing separating the brutish violence of Spencer's first Superbike and the technological elegance of the RC51, Hondas have won a total of 93 AMA Superbike races and seven AMA Superbike titles, taking five straight between 1984 and 1988.
		The final years of the 20th century were dominated by perhaps the most potent combination modern Superbike racing had yet seen: Miguel Duhamel and the Honda RC45.

	Soup :: Dorna Goes Superbike Racing
		And while the teams, riders, and machines that make up the factory AMA Superbike contingent this season might be pound-for-pound the most impressive ever, its numbers have dwindled down to just six, with both Kawasaki and Yamaha on the sidelines despite introducing 'all-time'-type Superbike platforms for '04.
		It can also happily coexist alongside Grand Prix racing, which means if Dorna truly wants to end the war once and for all, they'd best finish the job via a production-based series of their own.
		If all went to plan, Dorna would simultaneously steal the international Superbike market (and leave the FIM powerless to stop it by not seeking official 'World Championship' designation for the championship) and regain control over their feeder-class system in one fell swoop.
