However the alarmingly close-call is made very clear by a loud scream as he narrowly avoids being bit by another bike.
Superbike racing involves using highly-modified bikes and the rules vary from series to series, in general the motorcycles must maintain the same profile as their roadgoing counterparts.
They will have the same overall appearance as seen from the front, rear and sides.
In addition, the frame cannot be modified. Teams may modify some elements of the bike, including the suspensions, brakes, swingarm, and the diameter and size of the wheels.
