The Triumph Superbike Classic (formerly the Honda Superbike Classic and Barber Superbike Classic) is an annual event in the "AMA Chevy Trucks U. S. Superbike Championship". It consists of a two-race event held annually in the Spring at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham. The races feature modified street motorcycles with up to 1000cc displacement racing over 100 kilometers (28 laps).

In 2010, Barber hosted the AMA Superbike Championship in September instead of the Spring races. In 2011 the track resumed hosting a Spring event.
