<br />
'''Superbike racing''' is a category of [[motorcycle racing]] that employs modified production motorcycles. [[Superbike World Championship]] is the [[international]] superbike championship, and national superbike championships are held in many countries as well, including the [[United Kingdom]], the [[United States]], [[Japan]], and [[Canada]]. Superbike racing is very popular with manufacturers, since it helps promote and sell their product, as captured by the slogan "Win on Sunday; Sell on Monday".<br />
<br />
==Characteristics of Superbike racing motorcycles==<br />
Superbike racing motorcycles are derived from standard production models, so for a bike to be eligible, the manufacturer must first [[homologation|homologate]] the model and manufacture the required number of roadgoing machines. While rules vary from series to series, in general the motorcycles must maintain the same profile as their roadgoing counterparts, with the same overall appearance as seen from the front, rear and sides. In addition, the frame cannot be modified. Teams may modify some elements of the bike, including the suspensions, brakes, swingarm, and the diameter and size of the wheels.<br />
<br />
Superbike racing motorcycles must have [[four-stroke engine]]s of between 850&nbsp;[[Cubic centimetre|cc]] and 1200&nbsp;cc for [[v-twin|twins]], and between 750&nbsp;cc and 1000&nbsp;cc for [[four cylinder]] machines.<br />
<br />
The restriction to production models distinguishes Superbike racing from [[MotoGP]] racing, which uses prototype machines that bear little resemblance to production machines. This is somewhat similar to the distinction in car racing between [[touring car racing|touring cars]] and [[Formula One]] cars, though the performance gap between Superbike and MotoGP racing is much smaller.<br />
<br />
