# Temporada 2004 del Campeonato Mundial de Superbikes

La Temporada 2004 del Campeonato Mundial de Superbikes fue la decimoséptima temporada del Campeonato Mundial de Superbikes FIM. La temporada comenzó el 29 de febrero en Valencia y terminó el 3 de octubre en Magny-Cours después de 11 rondas. La tradicional ronda japonesa en Sugo fue reemplazada por una nueva ronda canadiense que estaba programada para el 4 de julio en el Mont-Tremblant, cerca de Quebec. Aunque no se dio ninguna explicación para el cambio, se consideró como una forma de venganza después de la negativa de los fabricantes japoneses a respaldar las reglas de 2004. La ronda canadiense se canceló finalmente después de una inspección de circuito determinó que la cantidad de trabajo necesario para llevar el lugar a la norma WSBK no se podría llevar a cabo a tiempo para la fecha propuesta.
2004 fue la primera temporada en la que todas las motos tuvieron que usar neumáticos de control, proporcionados por Pirelli. En parte debido a la regla del neumático de control, ninguna moto de fábrica fue presentada por los fabricantes japoneses.
James Toseland ganó el campeonato de pilotos y Ducati ganó el campeonato de constructores.
