Continuing our celebration of 50 Years of Superbikes, we honor three-time AMA Superbike Champion Reg Pridmore.
Pridmore made history in 1976 when he captured the inaugural AMA Superbike National Championship aboard a BMW R90S.
He successfully defended his title in 1977 after switching to a Kawasaki Z1000, then completed an incredible three-peat in 1978. At 39 years old, Pridmore became a three-time AMA Superbike Champion, cementing his place among the sport's pioneers and legends.
In recognition of his achievements and lasting impact on motorcycle racing, Pridmore was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2002.
