About the Game

Originally released in 1986 for home microcomputers, this stylish high-speed motorcycle game from legendary developers Epyx saw players grab the handlebars of 750 ccs of screaming machine, chrome, and pistons ready for the road. Now, relive those days in this remastered emulated version. Included are Amstrad CPC, ZX Spectrum and Commodore 64 versions.

Gameplay

Race through a series of courses with varying countryside backgrounds, battling other motorcycles and the clock. Be careful, for at these breakneck speeds the slightest miscalculation spells disaster. Lean into the turns to gain the advantage, and carefully control your speed with 3 different gears.


This enhanced version introduces a number of modern features to this retro classic, including:

  • Saving/loading the game at any point
  • Support for most modern game controllers
  • Full control remapping
  • Image scaling and smoothing options
