MotoAmerica is the organization that promotes the AMA Superbike Series since 2015. Sanctioned by the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) and the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM), it features five classes of road racing - Superbike, Superstock 1000, Supersport, Superstock 600 and the spec-class KTM RC 390 Cup. The series crowned its first champions in 2015, led by AMA Superbike Championship winner Cameron Beaubier. The other champions were Jake Gagne (Superstock 1000), J. D. Beach (Supersport), Joe Roberts (Superstock 600) and Gage McAllister (KTM RC 390 Cup).
The series consisted of nine rounds and 18 races in 2015 with the championship getting started at the Circuit of the Americas(COTA) in Austin, Texas and ending at New Jersey Motorsports Park in Millville, New Jersey. MotoAmerica shared three rounds of its series with Dorna properties MotoGP (COTA and Indianapolis Motor Speedway) and the World Superbike (Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca).
In 2016 the series again operated over nine rounds despite the loss of the Indianapolis event. In 2015 MotoAmerica had run alongside the MotoGP at Indianapolis but this was dropped from the MotoGP calendar for 2016. There was an extra round in 2016 at New Jersey Motorsports Park, bringing the total back up to 9 rounds.
