Super Cycle.Hang on. If you can.
You're sitting on 750 cc's of screaming machine, chrome and pistons ready for the course. It's you and your cycle against the road, the curves, the other motorcycles and the clock. Hot rubber on hot streets as you scream to victory.
Racing was never so fast and furious.
It takes split second timing. You must know when to cut, when to speed up, when to brake. Hesitate, and there's no way you'll win. Act rashly, and you crash.
You race through progressively harder courses. Finish successfully, and you get to try the next one. But don't push your machine too far. Keep your eye on the instruments. Push it to the limit, and you win. Push it over, and you crash.
* Race against Other Motorcycles through Countryside that Changes from Course to Course. * Watch Realistic Instruments —Tachometer, Speedometer. * Lean into the Turns, Scream Out into the Lead. * One Player.
