Supercross bikes and showroom motorcycles in India differ in their design and purpose. Supercross bikes are specialized off-road motorcycles built for competitive Supercross racing on tracks with jumps and obstacles. They have enhanced suspension, lighter frames, and more powerful engines compared to typical showroom motorcycles.
Showroom motorcycles in India are generally designed for on-road use and cater to daily commuting or recreational riding. They prioritize comfort, fuel efficiency, and versatility for various road conditions. These bikes often have less aggressive suspension setups and are not optimized for the extreme conditions of Supercross racing.
To summarise, Supercross bikes are purpose-built for off-road racing, while showroom motorcycles in India are designed for everyday on-road use.

Speeds vary depending on the track, but you can expect to see competitors going in excess of 80 KMPH at a typical Supercross race.

Riders fly 70 feet in distance while flying as high as a three-story building of jumps called “triple jumps.”

Most young riders get started at the local level, training on nearby tracks to hone their racing skills. To participate in CEAT ISRL, interested riders have to register their name for auctions. Once the registered rider is picked up by any of the franchises during the auction, the rider becomes eligible to participate in CEAT ISRL.

All riders in CEAT ISRL are required to wear safety equipment, including helmets, racing pants, boots, gloves, and goggles as may be prescribed by the national federation, FMSCI. Many riders also use chest protectors, and kidney belts for added protection, and some wear neck braces to prevent spinal cord injuries.

Roughly 500-600 truckloads of dirt is required to set up the track for each event, which equals roughly 5000 cubic meters. It takes a crew of seven with construction equipment, about five days to build the course.
