This was back in the days of DOS. You could choose 125, 250 or 500cc classes and it used all the (then) current GP tracks. The Graphics engine was very good for its day and it had a high degree of difficulty when run at "Expert" level. The bikes behaved quite realistically.

GP500 - really cool game. Revolves around racing the two-stroke 500 GP bikes on tracks which are surprisingly accurate. Even the graphics are still good by today's standard. You can download different sounds (like MotoGP 4-stroke).
One thing I liked was finding the cheat for Mick Doohan's 1994 NSR500.
That thing has a vicious powerband and on cold slicks it's slide & highside-city !!!!

At the risk of stating the bleedin' obvious, Tourist Trophy and MotoGP4.

Racing your mate on Suzuka 8hr bikes round the Nurburgring is the absolute bollocks when your real bike isn't working. Pity they called it Tourist Trophy and didn't include the IOM course though...

And for when one gets sick of racing a maximum of 3 other bikes, switch to MotoGP4 and race the best riders in the world on the best bikes in the world, on (most of) the best tracks of the world

Road Rash on PC. Best game EVER. Intro video:

This game is probably what got me interested in getting a bike. Played it for the first time back in '95ish

I always liked Harley Davidsons Race To Rally, if it didn't crash everytime I got first place!

Yep, Tourist Trophy. Was always a fan of the Gran Turismo series, so when it came out, I had to get it. Awesome game, only gripe is the lack of motards, would love to see some of the factory race motards on it.:scooter:

Just a bit of Tourist Trophy eye candy. Sorry they're all Hondas - I genuinely don't know why this is...

Guess you weren't quite prepared for me to kick you off that corner at Port Waikato then? :rofl:

Loved road rash, always wondered how they got an NSR250 to wheelie on the move like that, only way I could guess is to gear it down to heck.
Great game.

The Road Rash videos got me hooked, although the game wasn't great.
Superbike2001 was awsome.
Played a game called Cyclemania. It was played like Road Rash but the road and traffic was real video albeit low quality.
MotoGP2 on XBox was awsome. I liked how you could totaly custom paint bike and rider.
