RACE CLASSIFICATIONS:

Superbike: 

Superbikes are racing motorcycles 
that are modified versions of machines originally sold for street use.  

The concept of Superbike racing is similar to that of 
championship stock car racing - to have machines that 
visually resemble production models, while allowing 
freedom to the tuner to improve the power and handling 
characteristics of the machine.

Superbike class motorcycles use 901cc - 1000cc four-stroke 
motors with two or more cylinders.

 

Supersport: 

Supersport bikes, along with those in Superstock, are the 
closest motorcycles to showroom stock in the AMA 
Superbike Championship.  The Supersport class is 
comprised of 0-600cc four-stroke, multi-cylinder machines.

 

Superstock:

Like Supersport, Superstock machines are based on 

production four-stroke street motorcycles.  The Superstock 

class is comprised of 745cc - 1000cc four-stroke, multi-

cylinder machines.

 

Formula Xtreme:

AMA Formula Xtreme motorcycles are allowed the largest 

displacement engines in AMA Road Racing and are based 

on production four-stroke street motorcycles.  Machines in 

the class are based on the following displacements:

- 450cc-600cc four-stroke, multi-cylinder

- 595cc-750cc four-stroke, liquid-cooled twin-cylinder

- 850cc-1350cc four-stroke, air-cooled twin-cylinder
