* The full British Superbike Championship, as it exists today, was only launched as recently as 1996. Prior to that there had typically been more than one British series (see notes below) for production-based 750cc four-strokes, and then for Superbikes, with the Supercup usually regarded as the most prestigious. Before the adoption of the World Superbike formula, 500cc two-stroke machines were also eligible in TT F1, hence Darren Dixon’s 1988 title.

** Marshall raced both the GSX-R1100 and RG500
