Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Superbike Showdowns: Factory Rivalries, Production Racers, and the Battle for Two-Wheeled Glory is an independent, unauthorized history of top-level production-based motorcycle racing. From Honda's RC30 and Ducati's desmodromic twins to Yamaha's crossplane R1, Kawasaki's ZX-10R dynasty, BMW's modern resurgence, and the latest Ducati Panigale V4 R era, this book traces how road-based superbikes became the centre of a global engineering and sporting contest. Written in a fact-driven, narrative style, the book follows the machines, riders, manufacturers, regulations, and turning points that shaped the championship across four decades. It covers homologation specials, title-deciding battles, technical revolutions, privateer breakthroughs, electronic arms races, and the growing international footprint of the sport, all while keeping the focus on verifiable events, race results, and documented developments. This is a book for readers who want the full story behind the rivalries: Ducati versus Honda, Kawasaki versus Yamaha, twins versus fours, factories versus privateers, and tradition versus innovation. It is both a chronicle of racing history and a portrait of the motorcycle industry under pressure, where success on Sunday helped define what riders wanted to buy on Monday.
