Off-road
Motocross bikes: Motorcycles designed for racing over closed
circuits, often with jumps, over varied terrain of
gravel/mud/sand. Sometimes simply called "dirt bikes" when not
being raced, they can also be used for informal off-road
recreation, or "mudding".
Supermotos: motocross machines
fitted with street wheels and tyres similar to those used on
Sport bikes areknown as "Supermotards",
and riders of these machines compete in specially organised
rallies and races. Trials motorcycles: Motorcycles made as light as possible, with
no seat , in order to provide maximum freedom of body
positioning and stunt capability for use in observed trials
Dual-purpose
Dual-sports: Road-legal machines offering a compromise in
highway and off-road performance, durability and comfort.
Enduros: Road-legal versions of a motocross machine,
Adventure Touring: adventure tourers are motorcycles with
lighter weight than just about any other bike considered a
tourer, but heavier than any traditional dual-sport. Adventure
tourers can handle with aplomb rough dirt paths such as fire
roads however
