Most motorcycle racing fans will tell you that MotoGP represents the pinnacle of two-wheeled competition.

They're probably right.

But if you ask many British fans which championship delivers the most excitement, the answer is often very different.

That answer is British Superbikes.

Unlike MotoGP, where factory-built prototype machines and huge budgets can sometimes allow one manufacturer to dominate, BSB is built around production-based motorcycles and regulations designed to keep the racing close.

The result?

Late braking.
Last-lap battles.
Unexpected winners.
Championships that often go down to the final weekend.

If you're new to motorcycle racing, we'd argue there's no better place to start.

Not sure where to begin? We've got you covered.
