2024 British Superbike Championship

The 2024 British Superbike Championship is the 37th season of the motorcycle championship. Tommy Bridewell is the defending champion, having won the 2023 season by half a point over then-teammate Glenn Irwin.^[1]

Rule Changes[edit]

Incorporated into the 2024 season is a lesser-class of machine, entitled 'Pathway', to be run concurrently within the same scheduled events. The aim is to allow new participants to enter at a reduced cost with a machine closer in specification to Superstock 1000. Trials were held within some races during the 2023 season.^[2]

Two support classes were not carried on into 2024. The National Junior Superstock Championship because there are only two manufacturers available with no future options and no ability for a balance of performance formula, and the British Junior Supersport Championship because there was only one viable manufacturer making it a defacto one make series so was replaced with a properly budgeted and technically controlled one make series with the new Kawasaki British Superteen Championship using Kawasaki Ninja ZX-4RR machines.^[3]

Teams and riders[edit]

Riders with a superscript P are part of the Pathway class.
