Racing Supermonos with SupermonoGB! #supermono #roadracing
What is a supermono? Do I buy one or build one? Who races them? How I can I get involved? All your answers are in this video. Much like their heyday in the mid 90's, Supermono's are a single piston, 4 stroke engine, as small or as big as you like inside a suitable track frame. Have a look at some tasty Krämer's or the 'Shed Built Specials' in the video, and everything in between! You can race a mono in most clubs with a stock/supertwin class.
Currently, as at October 2023...
supermono-gb.com races with the Classic Racing Motorcycle Club
www.fpracing.co.uk races with the NG Road Racing Club (see the GP1 class)

    I took one for a test ride a few days ago and COULD NOT STOP SMILING. I live in rural north Devon and most of my trips are very short so this makes so much sense. It will be delivered in 5 days. I'd already taken out the insurance even before engaging in the test ride. This is a TOTALLY DIFFERENT experience. Insurance is cheap, no VAT, no road tax and ridiculously cheap to charge up.

    That was sadly the last ever Bristol Bike Show. They couldn't open it up again after the Plandemic, and the new road layouts in Bristol city centre have made it impossible. Wonderful memories of sitting outside The White Lion, watching the bikes roaring in and out of the show and round the centre. Great bands every year, and the crazy old lady dancers, never to be forgotten.❤

    I caught this video out of my desire to get an electric trackbike for use at go kart tracks. I found your video and was surprised by all the “new” things this exposed me to. I have been a motorcyclist for over 30 years, so I don’t get “new” things to ponder a lot. Thank you! New thing#1. I am a track rider familiar with 2 styles of riding, knee down and foot out (supermoto style). Here you are demonstrating another (one I knew of but don’t ever think about): foot down. New thing #2: dirttrack school. This is something I have long felt I need to learn to be a real motorcyclist. Thanks for the video and making me aware of the school. Love that this is a course with left and right turns. That was new to me since i am only aware of left turning circle tracks. (Gues this is 2 new things.) New thing #3. This is a question. Foot down technique puts your knee in a vulnerable position for injury. I am thinking about MCL/ACL injuries. I know this is more of a thing for dirt/offroad riders. Do you think knee braces, such as used by dirt riders, are a good consideration for this type of riding (dirt tracker insights welcome)? They are $$$. I am thinking about my foot flexing my knee sideways as it contacts the ground. It is at the very “end” of your leg and has a lot of leverage. Even if the friction force from the ground doesn’t generate a large force. Just wondering if this is a real concern or just an intellectual distraction. Good safety gear allows us to master 2-wheels while allowing for errors with less consequence. I want to ride and master everything 2-wheels related. Especially riding techniques. Thank you for the inspiration into “new” things.

    I agree with everything you said about the bike. The bike is at home on big sweeping turns. Not as much so on smaller canyon turns. I love the characture if the bike. Love the engine. The stabilty. How it holds its line on the big sweeping turns. I love the looks and the sound of the bike. But the bike doesnt like being below 3000 rpm. So in very slow stop and go city traffic where you are in first gear at one and two thousand rpm. Stopping and starting. The bike is not at all injoyable to be on which i found out tonight. Plus the engine heat in slow traffic. So there are definetally better bikes for city traffic. Other than that i really love my SuperSport.
