Castrol Honda Superbike Racing is a motorcycling game. The player can choose between four playing modes: practice session, trainer session, single race or championship. The two latter ones optionally also include a qualifying session. While there is only one bike (Honda RC 45), it is possible to change its setup.
Single races and championship can also be played with a second player in split-screen. The races include overall eight participants. Besides the eight difficulty levels, the player can also enable/disable auto brake, help arrows, steering assist, wheelies, engine overheat, tire wear, loose rear wheel, penalties, bike damage and major damage.
