World Superbike has confirmed the creation of a Supersport 300 class for 2017 as racing bodies adapt to current market realities and try to provide steppingstone opportunities for young riders.
The new Supersport 300 class builds on the popularity of the new, small sport bikes introduced in recent years that are far more capable than the few offerings in the 250 cc range just a few years ago. Meanwhile, 600-class sales are down and rumors suggest both Honda and Triumph are discontinuing their sport bike models in that segment.
