Big-bore consolidation in 2014

The Australian Superbike Championship will officially abolish the previous Prostock class, but some rules will be transferred across to the superbike class

Motorcycling Australia (MA) has announced changes to the Superbike regulations for the 2014 Australian Superbike Championship (ASBK).
The following items must remain as OEM manufactured equipment:

  • Camshafts
  • Valve springs
  • Valve retainers

Race kit ECUs will remain but the standard ECU may be reflashed. All other superbike regulations will remain as per 2013 Manual of Motorcycle Sport.
The updated superbike regulations incorporate aspects of the previous Superstock 1000 class (aka Prostock), which will now be discontinued.

These changes will initially only apply to the ASBK, with 2014 set “to be a trial year”.

The opening round of the 2014 championship will be held on April 5-6 at Queensland Raceway, but the full calendar is yet to be released.
