Intro

For many years, your moto-cross team has tried to earn the title of "Champion of the Moto-cross World", in the Moto-cross Marathon race. They have yet to succeed. Now, they've placed all their hopes in you! Go out and prove that you are the best!

Rules of the Game

Cybiko Superbike is a rear-view motorcycle racing game for 1 player. The object of the game to be the fastest in the Moto-cross competitions! There are three different tracks in the game: the simplest "Training", the more puzzling "Advanced", and the most difficult "Expert". Upon starting the game, you have to choose the track that you prefer to race on. Taking part in the race on every track consists of 2 phases: a Qualifying Lap phase and a race phase. For the Qualifying Lap phase, the player starts out on the track alone and must complete one lap for a qualifying time. After the player completes a lap, their time for that lap determines the player's starting position at the start of the race. Once this has been determined, the race phase of the level starts. There are three laps in the race. There are a total of 10 motorcycles (your motorcycle and 9 opponents). There will be a countdown from three, and, after "Go!!!" flashes, you will begin to control your motorcycle as you try to win the race.

There are three laps in "Training" track, four laps in the "Advanced" track, and five laps in the "Expert" track. The race on each track is over when you complete all the laps of that track. Try to do your best to be the first racer!

The end of the race
The race ends if you finish the race phase. A message will appear, telling you your place in the Top Ten.

If you drive too slowly
The maximum time allowed to complete the qualifying lap is 3 minutes. If you exceed this time, you will begin the race in the tenth position, although you are out of qualifying range.

If you are lapped once by the next to last racer, the race will end at the moment when he comes to the finish line. The game will also end if it takes you more than 10 minutes to finish a lap.
