Road Rash II (ロードラッシュII) is a sequel to Road Rash and was released exclusively for the Sega Mega Drive in 1992.

A Sega Game Gear version was planned for December 1994[7] and even reviewed by some gaming magazines, but was cancelled for unknown reasons. There is a suggestion that this version was reworked, becoming the Game Gear version of Kawasaki Superbike Challenge. An unused string in the latter title mentions Road Rash II by name and attributes the conversion to Teque London. It is thought the Game Gear version may have used the numerical 2 (i.e. Road Rash 2) rather than Roman numerals.
