Bike Mania 2: side-view motorbike trials over tyres, barrels and ramps
Bike Mania 2 is a 2D side-view trials motorbike game in which you ride a dirt bike over obstacle courses, balancing it with the arrow keys so the rider does not fall. The game's rules screen sums up the goal in one line: overcome all the obstacles as fast as you can. Up drives forward, Down drives backward, Left and Right tilt the bike, and P pauses. The first level runs past a chain-link fence, stacks of old tyres, metal barrels and a bench used as a ramp, with the level number at the top and a timer in the corner. There are 20 levels according to the GamePix listing. The game carries FlashGames247 branding and an IriySoft logo, and it began life as a Flash game before being rebuilt for modern browsers.

How to play Bike Mania 2
Bike Mania 2 is about balance more than top speed: a level stops the moment the rider falls, so every obstacle is a test of keeping the bike upright.

The FlashGames247 splash screen leads to the main menu, where the play button opens the first level.

Drive forward with Up
Up moves the bike ahead; Down drives it backward if you need to line up an obstacle again.

Tilt to balance
Left leans the bike back and Right leans it forward. Use them in the air and on the obstacles to land level.

What Bike Mania 2 is about
Balance is the whole game
Two keys move the bike and two tilt it; every obstacle is a question of how far to lean.
Twenty levels against the clock
Each level shows a running timer, and the crash screen totals time across levels as well as per level.
A Flash-era classic, rebuilt
Bike Mania 2 started as a Flash game on FlashGames247 and now runs in a current browser without a plug-in.
Junkyard obstacle courses
Tyres, oil barrels, benches and fences make up the first course, drawn in a side-on painted style.
Tips for Bike Mania 2
- Ease off Up at the first tyre stack. In our test, holding it for several seconds into that obstacle ended in a crash 13 seconds into level 1.
- Lean back with Left before a climb so the front wheel rides up the obstacle instead of hitting it.
- Level the bike in the air. Tilt so both wheels land together rather than the front wheel first.
- Use Down to retry an approach. Rolling back and trying an obstacle again keeps the level going, while a fall sends you to the crash screen.
- Press P when you need a break rather than letting the timer run.
Who is Bike Mania 2 for?
Players who remember Flash games
It carries FlashGames247 branding from the Flash era and keeps the side-view trials format.
Patient, precise players
The GamePix listing describes it as a game of skill and patience built on balance and control.
Keyboard-only players
The five keys on the rules screen are the entire control scheme.
Time, score and crashes
The rules ask you to clear the obstacles as fast as you can, and a timer runs in the top-right corner of every level. When the rider falls, the You've Crashed screen lists Level time, Total time and Score, so the game tracks both your time on the current level and your running total. From that screen you can restart the level or return to the menu. The game does not explain on screen how the score is calculated, so we do not guess at it here.
