Super Moto?

[Bryan_D]

Hey guys I am not into the motorcycle thing but I saw an article in a mag about this super moto thing. Saw that mcgrath and some other old names are running this now. Whats the deal with it? Do they jump or is it all flat track? Just curious any info would be cool. Thanks

It is a combination of a road race course with a motox course. The bikes are modified mx bikes with shorter suspension and road race tires plus many other mods. If you go to www.amaproracing.com it tells you all about the specs of the series. The tracks need to be a specific percentage dirt and a specific percentage road. It is getting very popular becuase it is fairly inexpensive and tracks can be set up in a parking lot.
